Full-time: Burgess Hill Town 4–1 Maldon & Tiptree.
Maldon & Tiptree suffered a fifth straight league defeat as Burgess Hill ran out 4-1 winners on Saturday. New Jammers boss Steve Butterworth has wasted little time in starting the work of reshaping the Maldon squad, with no fewer than four new faces in the starting line-up.
Jesse Olukolu, Ade Cole, Aron Pollock and Finley Corrigan all started. There was a place on the bench for Cameron Forde-Brown.
Burgess took the lead in the 23rd minute when Reggie Ward cut in onto his right and curled home from 25 yards out. Three minutes later, the hosts doubled their lead when ex-Maldon man Chris Whelpdale slotted home at the back post.
A two-goal deficit at the break was perhaps kind to the Jammers, but they were still in the game.
