Bognor Regis Town 1-5 AFC Wimbledon

Bognor Regis Town remain at the foot of the Blue Square South table after slumping to a heavy defeat at the hands of AFC Wimbledon at Nyewood Lane.

The Dons broke the deadlock after 32 minute when Kennedy Adjei flicked a header over on-rushing 18-year-old goalkeeper Robert French.

The visitors doubled their tally just two minutes later when Bognor's Sam Pearce headed the ball into his own net and Danny Kedwell netted their third goal, ten minute into the second period.

The Rocks pulled one back in the 74th minute, when Pearce made amends for his earlier mistake by heading in a deflected corner.

However, Jake Leberl restored the Wombles' three-goal advantage in the 85th minute before Kedwell popped up later to compound Bognor's misery.
