Hethersett gave new signing Steve Hyett (our ex youth goalkeeper) a chance to make his debut in midfield with Nick Jones also making his first start on the subs bench.

A dream start for the home side after five minutes with John Cooper and Steve Hyett combining on the right, a cross field pass was met with a superb curling shot from eighteen yards by Rob Harrison, hit first time past the keeper. 1-0 Lewis Mace should have increased the lead but on three occasions his finishing was well below his best. Steve Hyett then pounced to show his team mates the way to goal with a volley from eight yard's-0 Mace was still working hard getting into good positions and he finally found the net from close range. 3-0. John Cooper was busy making overlapping runs from deep and his cross was headed on by Mace for Harrison to score his second goal. 4-0

H-T 4-0

Robbie Lincoln started the scoring in the second half when he arrived late at the far post to side-foot home Scott Newstead,s free-kick. 5-0

Nick Jones and Tom Ganley came on to replace the injured Mike Roughsedge and Robbie Lincoln. Jones made an immediate impact collecting Harrison's through ball to net easily. 6-0

Little had been seen of the Heath house attack but they struck back and scored after lack of concentration in the home defence presented the chance. 6-1 Tom Ganley then fired in an unstoppable shot from fully twenty five yards that screamed high into the net. 7-1 Ganley was delighted to score his second when he stooped to head home Harrison's corner kick. 8-1

RESULT 8-1
