Goals: (Karczewski 30′; Date 40′; Ntim 90′)

Guernsey’s overdue return to action was a disappointing one as Leatherhead took all three points from Footes Lane with a comfortable victory on Wednesday night.

It means the Green Lions’ wait since March for a win goes on, and they continue to search for a first win of the season, and have now equalled their longest run of 10 home games without a win, initially set from January to April 2017.

The Sarnians started brightly enough and created a couple of openings, but Leatherhead controlled the game overall.

They took the lead on the half-hour through Sebastian Karczewski’s deflected effort, doubling their advantage 10 minutes later as Andre Date latched onto a loose ball in the area and fired home.

Substitute Kwesi Ntim added a third in the dying moments of the second half with a deft lob over Josh Addison that dropped into the far corner.

There was a return to action for club captain Jamie Dodd and midfielder Kieran Mahon. The Green Lion’s efforts to kickstart their season continue at Hanworth Villa on Saturday.

Guernsey are now one place above the relegation zone. The other Isthmian South Central results were as follows: Badshot Lea 0-0 South Park (Reigate), Harrow Borough 2-0 Rayners Lane, Hayes & Yeading United 1-2 Hanworth Villa, Metropolitan Police 2-1 Southall, Raynes Park Vale 1-2 Sutton Common Rovers, Westfield 4-1 Horndean.
