With Isaac Osei-Tutu and Jordan Brown both suspended and Charlie Samuel and Alex Salmon both injured manager Mark Bartley was forced into changes for this clash with high-flying Cheshunt - the first between these opponents for some time. Barts had become aware of ex-Blue Adam Richards playing on dual-registration from Harrow Borough and quickly got him to agree to return to Oak Tree Road and he was immdediately drafted into the side and showed the form that had seen him snapped up by the Premier Division side from the off.

In a close game Marlow almost snatched victory when a fiercesome late strike from Devontae Romeo rebounded back off an upright and flew across the face of the home goal in the 89th minute.The points were therefore shared with the home side moving to the top of the Bostik South Central division thanks to their hare of the spoils and the Blues feeling that they were probably worth of more than they came away with.
They had a couple of early opportunities to open the scoring early on with Romeo denied at close range by the home keeper in the 12th minute and Chid Onokwai denied twice 11 minutes later. In response Simon Grant made a one-handed save as half-time neared following a block on the line from Curtis Chapple.

Grant was again in action in the 67th minute in a 1 on 1 situation with Koto Awotwi with Marlow going closest to taking all the points late on through that Romeo shot.
