Bracknell Town moved top of the Uhlsport Hellenic League Premier Division with victory over previous leaders Flackwell Heath today.
After Chris Grace had denied Dan Rapley, the Robins struck two first half goals through Philip John and then George Short who curled in from the edge of the box.
Flackwell were awarded a penalty when Joe Gater handled ten minutes in the second period and Dean Allen confidently stroked it right in the corner.
It wasn’t Gater’s day as he was then dismissed for a second yellow but substitute Jon Bennett secured the win in stoppage time when he rounded goalkeeper David Lyons and slotted into the net but there was still time for Allen to score his second as the visitors came up just short.
Binfield recorded back to back wins after seeing off struggling Burnham 4-1.
Harry Lee headed the Moles in front before the hosts levelled shortly after half-time.
Josh Howell was then dismissed for a reckless tackle but it mattered not as new signing Alex Colverd struck twice and Carlo Santoro completed the scoring.
In the Buildbase FA Vase, Windsor were the only local side to progress as they defeated Devizes Town 2-1.
Barry Hayles opened the scoring before Jack Denton danced through the defence and slipped the ball to Nadir Shafi who doubled the advantage.
Devizes replied courtesy of a stunning Robbie Mitchell strike but it wasn’t enough.
