The Scholars started strong and came close within seconds when from kick off Joey Butlin was sent through and hit just wide.The pressure continued when five minutes in Luke Yates headed an effort onto the roof of the net.

On the quarter hour mark Todd Ferrier came close on his return to The Guardian Warehousing arena when his near post effort was well held by Raven Constable.

It was a complete opposite in the second half when Curtis Pond was called into action for Chase when a near post effort was well saved when he put it behind.

Chasetown’s pressure told when on the 66th minute Yates was fed through and slotted home under Constable to give us a 1-0 lead.

The Scholars kept pushing for a second and came close when Butlin had an effort that went just over after a cross into the box.

We now take a two week break from the league and are next in action when we travel to Worcester City in the FA Cup on Saturday the 30th of August.
