TEAM: Fred Toomer, Niall Bryant, Jack Dukes, Adam Wiltshire, Tom Nicholas, Scott Gilham ©, Jamel Mattan, Williams Peauroux, Joe Maxwell, Scott Waters, Nick Watt

SUBS: Andy Forbes (on for Waters 45), James Powell (on for Nicholas 80), Joe Crook (on for Dukes 70)

Eastleigh Goalscorers: Joe Maxwell 2, Scott Waters, Jamel Mattan, Joe Crook

Wayne Mew and Paul Wiltshire's young reserve side continued their fine run of form, with a 5-3 victory over Sutton United's second string this afternoon.

This was Eastleigh's fourth straight win, which now sees the side stretch their unbeaten run to a highly impressive eight games.

Fantastic news to come out of the game aside from the terrific win, was the fact that fans favourite Andy Forbes is on his way back to full fitness. The Spitfires' top goalscorer for the past couple of seasons, has been sorely missed since missing pre-season with a groin injury and then missing the start of the Blue Square South season with a further setback due to a stomach abscess.

Coming on for Scott Waters at half time, Forbes got through 45 minutes of football this afternoon and it is now just a matter of time before 'Forbesy' is back in the first team finding the net again!
