Downton and Hamble ASSC are still anchored at the foot of the table after they suffered away defeats at VTFC and Hamworthy United respectively.
Two goals in the opening 16 minutes put Downton on the slippery slope of a 3-1 reverse at VTFC. Mike Spinney lobbed the keeper after eight minutes and then Gary Biddle flicked in a Marc Diaper free kick.
Kevin Thick headed in a Paul Gulliver free kick to reduce the arrears on 70 minutes but any hopes of a point were snuffed out by the Boatmen ten minutes later when Stewart Beck hammered home Ben Tyrrell's cross.
