Highlights: Bowers and Pitsea 2 Basildon United 1

Bowers & Pitsea hosted derby day, Basildon United making the short trip to the Len Salmon. The Bees have been in fine form, but of course lost their manager in midweek- and they lost the first goal of the game on the half hour, Matt Price getting his first for the hosts. It was two-nil just before the hour mark, Manny Oluwasemo doubling Bowers advantage, but the Bees made the closing stages interesting when Ben Allen got one back with four minutes left. Sadly for the travelling fans, that was as good as it got, a first defeat in eight for the Bees. Bowers climb to fifth.
