The reserves won their third game in a row beating Harrow Borough 5-2 this evening at Claremont Road. Another strong side was fielded, including the returning Jimmy Froud and René Street along with trialist Andrew Julius, a defender previously with Redbridge. The Greens took an early lead through the returning René Street and it was soon doubled by Danny Edwards. There was bad news for the Greens midway through the half Dave King picked up a back injury and he was replaced in goal by defender Ricky Pattenden. Harrow took advantage and went on to pull the game back level by half time. Blaise O'Brien restored the lead four minutes into the second half with a delicate chip, Danny Edwards scored his second of the night on the hour mark, and Jimmy Froud completed the scoring three minutes later with a fine lob. Both O'Brien's and Froud's goals were set up by 25 yard headers out of midfield by Lee O'Leary.

Team : King (Pattenden 20), Julius, Murphy, Parker, Street, Leach, Busby, O'Leary (Lopes 64), Edwards, O'Brien (Froud 61), Ake.
