Lewisham Borough  1-4  Bridon Ropes
SC Thamesmead 3-1 Crockenhill

 

Lewisham Borough fell to their 11th defeat in a row after Bridon Ropes left the Ladywell Arena with the three points after winning 4-1.

The win was confirmed for SC Thamesmead in the 72nd minute when Aaron Jeffery got their third and with victory they move in to 12th place.
