Peacehaven & Telscombe and Crowborough Athletic aim to exit Isthmian SE drop zone

Peacehaven & Telscombe and Crowborough sit in the Isthmian South East relegation zone as they continue to struggle to get their season motoring.

The Tye are 19th with 16 points, one place and one point above the Crows.

Last Saturday, Peacehaven lost 5-0 at Herne Bay – despite the game being goalless at the interval.

And it’s been a fruitless week – also at home – for Crowborough.

They slipped to a 1-0 defeat to Sheppey United and had Josh Turner sent off in injury time.

And things got worse for them on Tuesday night when they lost 7-2 to Cray Valley PM, goals from Steve Smith and Finlay Nwanosike giving scant consolation on a tough night.

The sides, who drew 2-2 with each other a couple of weeks ago, look for improvements on Saturday, when Peacehaven host eighth-placed Sevenoaks and the Crows face a formidable trip to new leaders Whitstable.

Both are also in action on Tuesday, when the Tye host Erith Town and the Crows visit Ashford United.
