Baldock Town 6 St Peter's 1
ST Peter's crashed back to earth at Herts Senior County League Division One leaders Baldock Town on Saturday.
The Saints, boosted by a three match winning run, were without a number of players as their squad was weakened dramatically from recent weeks. The bench was made up of manager Mitch Morris and illness victim Sean Workman.

Baldock powered on to a four goal lead in the second half before the resilient Saints pulled one back. Mark Savory chased a long ball from Richard Ellis and charged down a clearance from the home goalkeeper before slotting in his eighth goal of the campaign.
Any chance of a late rally from the Saints was cruelly curtailed when goalkeeper Shearer was forced off injured. Darren Shea had to go in goal and Baldock netted two more to win 6-1 and seal a flattering result.
Saints are back on their home ground at Lemsford when they take on Chipperfield on Saturday with a 3pm kick off.
