ARRESTING DISPLAY BY REBELS

WORTHING demolished a depleted London boys in blue on Saturday. The Met relaxed only last season their policy on players needing to be serving police officers and they went down to two goals from Sam Francis, one from the rejoining Gavin Geddes and another from Ben Carrington.

They did give Rebels a rude awakening from the comfort zone of 3-0 in the 73rd minute, when Jon Daly clipped the ball over Ross Standen to reduce the deficit.

And then they took the game to Worthing with captain Ian Batten setting up a couple of chances for Bruno Mendonca, but the big front man failed to capitalise.
