Town thump Saints
Ten-man Town see off St Peter’s
HSCL Division One
St Peter’s 1 Buntingford Town 5
ST PETER’S turned in their poorest performance of the season as they slumped to a 5-1 home defeat against Buntingford Town.
The writing was on the wall early on as the visitors took the lead with a header from a corner.
Only some good goalkeeping from Billy Barnes stopped Town extending their lead but they did get a second before the break.
The visitors were reduced to ten men early in the second half following a professional foul but that didn’t stop Town adding three more goals despite the best efforts of Barnes.
