Rusthall honour Jimmy Anderson for 300 games as manager

Rusthall also beat Haywards Heath Town 4-2 to reach the FA Vase third round.

Rusthall chairman Dean Jacquin and captain Robbie Bissett presented Jimmy Anderson with mementos to mark 300 games in charge, the club said.

Anderson was appointed on 16 December 2018. The club's figures show 119 wins (40%), 532 goals, one trophy, and a biggest win of 8-0 against Meridian VP.

In Saturday's 4-2 FA Vase second-round win over Haywards Heath Town, Lekan Osideko scored twice, had a hand in all four goals and was named man of the match, the club's report says. Thompson Adeyemi opened the scoring on 12 minutes and substitute Rajan Sahni made it 4-2 on 82.

Rahman Kareem was suspended after a red card the previous week, and Charlie Clover was cup-tied. Rusthall begin the defence of their SCEFL Challenge Cup title at Anderson's former club Corinthian on Tuesday, and host Hassocks in the Vase third round on 28 November.

This updates our earlier story: FA Vase: Hythe, Tunbridge Wells, Rusthall and Larkfield into the third round.

How sure are we?
