Billericay go top as Bank Holiday Monday goes goal-mad!

There were goals galore in the Premier Division this afternoon, as Harrow Borough lost their top spot- and their 100% record- to a thrashing at Hendon, whilst Billericay Town leapfrogged them as pacesetters whilst doling out their own hammering at Thurrock.
Here’s how the afternoon progressed:

1515 A James Shepherd own goal gives Enfield Town the advantage against Harrow Borough

1517 Former Kingstonian midfielder Joe Turner puts his new club, Tonbridge Angels, 1-0 ahead at home to Folkestone Invicta

1522 It’s that man Jake Robinson again, scoring his second of the day as Billericay go three up.

1530 Brightlingsea Regent, celebrating manager James Webster’s 400th match in charge, go ahead at Needham Market through George Doyle.

1539 That man Muir does it again- a hat trick now as Hendon score their fourth! And at Needham Market, Regent double their lead, Aaron Condon making it 0-2.

1626 Billericay Town score again- this time it’s Billy Bricknell, making it 0-5

1627 Hendon decide that anything Billericay can do they can imitate, Zak Joseph firing home their fifth. Margate announce the second largest crowd of the day, 630 watching their match with Dorking Wanderers- which is still 0-0, by the way!

1631 It isn’t nil-nil anymore! Margate take the lead through Jordan Chiedozie! And up at Silver Jubilee Park Hendon- or Hendno, as they are known on twitter and at Sky Sports, score again- this time through Keagan Cole- to make it six!
