Bels hit league record 11 goals

Football

Champions Belgrave Wanderers recorded the biggest win since Guernsey's football leagues were revamped at the start of the season on Saturday.

Bels returned from Port Soif with an 11-0 win over bottom-of-the-table Rovers, to go two points off top spot.

The previous record was also set by Bels when they beat Rovers 10-0 on Tuesday, 23 September 2008.

Rovers, who have not got a point, have a minus 55 goal difference having conceded 63 goals in 11 games.

Elsewhere Rangers are now seven points behind Bels in third place after drawing 4-4 with Sylvans in a thriller at St Peter.

Rangers were 3-1 up at half time but Sylvans fought back through goals from Jamie Le Cheminant, Lee Renouf and Danny Watts to lead 4-3 with five minutes to go before a late equaliser from secured a point for Rangers.

"At half time I said to the lads that even though we were 3-1 down the score didn't reflect the way the game was going," Sylvans manager Clive Bateman told BBC Guernsey.

"We told them to go out there and give it a go and that's what they did and fair play to them," he added.

St Martin's are now three points behind the red and blacks in fourth place with a game in hand after beating second-from-bottom Vale Rec in the other game of the day.
