Synthonia hosted Town for this August Billingham derby and took the bragging rights and the three points in a 1-0 win through a late Declan Brown goal.

It was a quiet first half in terms of chances on goal with both sides working hard and cancelling each other out.

The second period saw Synners play with more tempo, but still no real goal chances with Town defending stoutly to keep them out.

The game sprung into life in the 82nd minute with Synthonia scoring the only goal of the game as DECLAN BROWN latched onto Luke Hogan's left wing cross to stoop and head home. Following the goal Town player Fred Woodhouse lashed out at Brown giving the Referee no option but to give him a straight red card.
