Sheppey United had seen their one hundred percent start to the season come to a shuddering end, having taken only one point from their previous three matches, but the Ites hoped to kickstart another winning run as Littlehampton Town come to call. It didn’t start well for the Ites, as Eitel Moumi Goueth saw red after twenty one minutes, but within four minutes an own goal had put them ahead, and the ten men doubled their advantage with twenty minutes left, Jacob Lambert the scorer. Three points for the Ites was the outcome, despite being a man down for seventy minutes, and they climb to fourth. The Golds have played United five times since their elevation to our level and lost them all.
