Chatham, Sheppey and Corinthian maintained their perfect starts in the Southern Counties East League on Saturday.

Chats were the day’s biggest winners, defeating newboys Tower Hamlets 6-1 at Maidstone Road in front of 300 fans.

Moses Abioye put them ahead and an own goal made it 2-0 early in the second half but a controversial penalty, converted by Deese Kasinga, reduced the arrears with Chats boss Scott Lindsey sent-off for his protests.

Skipper Jack Evans restored the two-goal advantage, Dan Bradshaw added a fourth and Reece Butler headed in the fifth. Evans struck again late on to complete the scoring.

Corinthian were made to work for their 4-2 win at home to Fisher.

Emmanuel Oloyede opened the scoring but Malaki Coker’s close-range finish levelled matters.

Louie Clarke and Oloyede made it 3-1 at half-time, only for Christian Udo to bring Fisher back into the contest early in the second half.

It wasn’t until four minutes from time that Oscar Housego wrapped up the points for the home side.

Sheppey needed a stoppage-time winner from Warren Mfula after they let slip a two-goal lead against Balham.

Mfula had opened the scoring as early as the third minute and Harrison Carnegie put the Ites in control before half-time.

A Tom Read spot-kick and Cam Gordon goal levelled matters for Balham, who played the final 20 minutes with 10 men after Jake Haire’s red card. But Mfula struck in the fourth minute of stoppage time to make it four wins from four for Sheppey.

At least one 100 per cent record was going to end when Tunbridge Wells hosted Welling Town – and in the end it was both following a 2-2 draw.

Welling looked on course for victory after Alex Nelson added to Ryan Golding’s eighth-minute opener early in the second half.

But two goals in as many minutes by Euan Sahadow and Miles Cornwell made it 2-2 – again in front of a full house of 300 fans.

Bearsted produced one of the results of the day with 4-3 success at Beckenham.

Andy Irvine’s brace and a Jon Rogers goal put Bears in control as they led 3-1 early in the second half.

David Baranowski made it 4-1 late on before two goals in a minute for Becks by Tyrone Pink ensured a nervy finale.

Canterbury’s miserable start continued as they lost 3-0 at AFC Croydon while Hollands & Blair were held 0-0 by draw specialists Erith & Belvedere. It was the visitors’ third draw in four games.

Charlie MacDonald scored twice as Glebe defeated Lordswood 3-2. The 39-year-old put Glebe ahead before Jason Perry levelled on the half-hour.

Stacy Long restored Glebe’s win and MacDonald made it 3-1 as they posted their first league win, Dave Botterill replying late on.

Erith Town let slip a two-goal lead at home to Crowborough before scoring the winner once they had been reduced to 10 men.

Dan Nash and Steadman Callender put the Dockers 2-0 up but a Jack Funnell penalty and Kieran Scantlebury made it 2-2 before Ryan Mahal netted with 13 minutes left.

Deal were another side that lost a two-goal advantage – but they still ended up comfortable 5-2 winners over Punjab United.

Alfie Foster and Ben Chapman put Deal in control but a Luke Adams penalty and George Goodwin made it 2-2 after 35 minutes.

Macauley Murray put Deal ahead on the stroke of half-time and Toby Greenfield and Troy Howard rounded off the win in the second half.

Kennington are top of Division 1 following a 4-0 home win over Rusthall, Gary Lockyer scoring a brace.

Rochester remain unbeaten after a last-gasp Harrison Hume effort earned them a 2-2 draw at home to Stansfeld.

Snodland are up to third after goals from Omar El Mantawy and Brad Webb saw them win 2-1 at Bridon Ropes.
