Beaconsfield SYCOB 4 London Colney 0
THE Blueboys were beaten 4-0 away at Premier Division title chasers Beaconsfield SYCOB on Monday.
The home side made a swift start and were ahead on two minutes when Michael Currie crossed the ball to Stuart Swift who fired in at the far post.
Beaconsfield continued to press and got the second when Swift's corner was deflected into his own net by defender Dave Corran.
A rare Colney attack went unrewarded when Tinashe Jaravaza made a surging run forward and crossed superbly for Tony Caines, who headed over the bar.
