Rustics dealt striker blows

Rusthall’s lack of a proven goalscorer again cost them points as they went down 2-1 at British Energy Kent County League leaders Lewisham Borough last Saturday.

Despite creating many chances they only had a Rob Perkins volley to show for their pressure.

Manager Robbie Forbes, meanwhile, is currently in discussions with a proven goalscorer but admits his target may not sign for the Jockey Farm outfit until next season.

Forbes will be without his top-scorer Dave Burren for Saturday’s home game against Gravesend based side Fleet Leisure as he’s away for the next fortnight.
