3.2 win - town take another step to playoffs

with this result witham move upto second in the table whilst it leaves erith and belverder fighting a relegation battle at to bottom of the table, yet they battles well throughout much better than there league position suggests and there cause was not helped when they had to play the whole of the second half with ten men as marcus cassios was red carded just before the half time whistle.it was cassios who scored the first gaol of the day for the vistors after 16 minutes with a shot from the edge of the area and they almost scored again but witham keeper martyn guest made a good save in a one on one situation, witham leveled things when james stevens score with a trade mark free kick giving keeper bobby sturgeon no chance . it was not long before the vistors were in the lead again when felix ogea-andrews scored with a surprise shot. the vistors battled the second half well with ten men and it was relief for witham when they equalised when john watson scored with a deft shot. the winning goal scored by popular young striker shamido pedulu recently promoted from the reserves, to repeat scoring the winner as he did at sudbury - a truly super sub- when he shot into the roof of the net after a good run by tom waite, late in the game john watson cleared off the line as the ten men fought to the end.not the best of displays but another three points towards the play off spot witham seek.
