Guernsey FC fall to the Ryman South leaders

'The Hillians' made it 20 games unbeaten with a thoroughly deserved and comprehensive 2-0 win over Guernsey FC in front of a 740-strong lunchtime crowd at Footes Lane and the result is that Tony Vance's side are now 15 points adrift of the visitors having played a match more.

In most people's eyes it would be game over in terms of the title for the Green Lions, but Burgess Hill manager Ian Chapman was having none of it.

'You can still win it,' said the former Brighton & Hove Albion man.

'The way your boys pass the ball as you did today in the first half, you are going to murder teams,' he added.

It is doubtful whether Tony Vance would agree, as he groaned: 'We were not ruthless enough'.
