Farnham Town 6 - 1 Alton
27 Nov 2023
Match report by Dave Hawtin
Alton should not spend too long breaking down this result. Farnham have committed resources and have aspirations on a completely different level and are by far and away the best side in the league.
The game was over after half an hour as Farnham ruthlessly took advantage of every Alton error, even though territorially the visitors had started the game well without seriously threatening the home goal.
With a lead of 4 nil at the break the home side played well within themselves in the second half adding two more goals and conceding a late consolation goal to Ed Dryden.
The challenge for Alton will be to quickly put this result fully behind them and get back to competitive ways as quickly as possible remembering the unbeaten sequence they had built prior to this fixture.
Alton return home to The Exclusive Networks Stadium this Saturday 2nd December, when Epsom & Ewell will be the visitors. Kick off 3pm.
