Highlights: Margate 0 Carshalton Athletic 1

Margate, under new management with the arrival of Mark Stimson, were looking to get their new boss off to a winning start as Carshalton Athletic travelled to the seaside. Both sides had seen their form drop off a cliff, each recording only one win from their previous ten, the travelling Robins arriving on the back of a run of five consecutive defeats. It was the visitors who struck first, Bradley Williams breaking the deadlock on fifty seven minutes- and that turned out to be that. Athletic fans breathed an enormous sigh of relief, and Stimson will certainly be aware of the size of his task.

Gate haven’t beaten the Robins in nine attempts- although five of those have ended level.
