Our first league game of October was away at Lewes Bridgeview; we dominated for long periods and deserved at least a point but left with nothing after squandering several good chances - losing 1-0.

The early exchanges were very much even with both sides carving out half chances, but it was the two defences that were on top. After an entertaining stalemate in the first half Buxted started to become more dominate early in the second period and created two clear-cut chances to open the scoring, both chances falling to Pedley. First he fell over his own feet when clear one on one with the keeper and then put a diving header over the bar when it was harder to miss than score! Our failure to capitalise on our domination was punished when a Lewes goal kick was allowed to bounce and Dale Mayhew then headed into his own net as he tried to cushion the ball back to Clift in goal. Despite late pressure we were unable to find an equaliser; we had lost a game that we dominated for large periods.
