Slade Farm United suffered their first loss of the season, going down 2-0 away at Mansfield Road. Slade started the game brightly and were unfortunate not to take the lead when Dave Barrie’s shot hit both posts, but somehow didn’t cross the line. Neither side were able to create any clear cut chances and were still level at half time. Mansfield Road started the second half positively and took the lead early on, with a very well taken finish from the edge of the 18 yard box. Slade were forced to chase the game, but were still unable to create any clear cut chances. As they committed more men forward, Mansfield road were able to catch them on the break and their striker capitalised scoring his second goal of the game, smashing home from the edge of the box. Mansfield road held on for a hard though victory.
