Walton & Hersham 1 Chatham Town 2
Published: 09:03, 02 November 2009
Chatham Town boss Alex O’Brien was sent to the stands and Ray Powell sent off in their win at Walton & Hersham in Ryman League Division 1 South on Saturday.
The visitors also had six players booked and will be fined by the Football Association.
Powell saw red after a second caution for retaliating while O’Brien, pictured, was removed from the dugout after voicing his opinion once too many times for the referee’s liking.
Nonetheless it was a second away win in four days for Chatham, who lie four points behind leaders Worthing.
Defender Richard Avery headed in after Mark Green nodded back a far-post corner to put Chatham ahead in the 15th minute and striker Brendon Cass made it 2-0 three minutes later.
The hosts pulled one back when Ryan Lake scored with a disputed free-kick, but they failed to find another way through once Powell was sent off.
