The game began with Eastleigh on the front foot as Damian Scannell won an early corner on the far side. Jai Reason’s set piece was aimed towards Craig McAllister where the ball then fell for midfielder Mark Hughes. The former Barnet skipper hit the ball on the volley but the effort was sliced and sailed comfortably off target. Further attacking play by Scannell once more down the left, saw his low cross find Reason in space in the centre, though Jai's effort was well blocked. The on...

EASTBOURNE BOROUGH 1-0 EASTLEIGH Saturday 27th October 2012 Blue Square Bet South Match Report by Paul McNamara The frustrating stop-start nature of Eastleigh’s season continued on a bitterly cold afternoon in East Sussex as they lost by a single goal to an unexceptional Eastbourne Borough side. This display bore far closer resemblance to that at Gloucester in the F.A. Cup than the much improved showing at Chelmsford in the Spitfires last league match two weeks ago. There was no clue to the eventual outcome early in the game as the visitors started by far the livelier of the two teams.

As the players and their outstanding travelling support were celebrating what appeared a vital early breakthrough the referee was disallowing the goal for an infring...
