Synners continued a good run of home form as they made it four wins out of four with their first game of 2025.

A dream start to the game saw Billingham open the scoring in the 4th minute as ASH LAVAN picked up on a loose ball to the left of goal and sent in a 25-yard shot which left Bedlington keeper James Lone scrambling across goal but he couldn't keep the shot out.

A 47th minute foul by Lone on Lavan in the box gave Synners a penalty kick, however Ryan Appleby's spot-kick struck the cross-bar and was eventually cleared.

Synthonia doubled the lead in the 74th minute with substitute MATTY WILLSHAW latching onto a long punt upfield from keeper Sam Taylor and sent his shot past the advancing keeper and in.

Referee: T Craig, Assistants: D Beattie, E Sadler.
