Another wedding deprived Milton of a full squad for a 4th week running, but they put in a gutsy performance in the monsoon conditions at the Heights before a goal against the run of play sen Easington through.
A hat full of chances for Milton went begging before a counter attack from Easington proved to undo the good work - a through ball into the box and as Harry Whitehead advanced to collect the ball, the centre forward toed it past him and slid it into an open net.
Disappointing result given the feeling of dominance in the match, but Marcus Brown wasn't too downhearted.
"given who we are missing, the performance and the weather its not the end of the world. Creating chances has improved, we just need to start taking them".
