Fareham's single-goal demise at BAT wasn't so unexpected as Andy Leader's side are now unbeaten in their last nine league outings - a run stretching back to August and the second Saturday of the season.

"It's another great result and the run goes on," said the BAT boss. "It was a very tough game but I felt that we were worthy winners, and it's three more excellent points," added Leader.

The game's only goal came after 25 minutes, Paul West playing a one-two with Paul Masters before cutting inside to finish with a sweet strike.
