Winchester City's last home match played on grass saw them achieve their third successive home victory without conceding a goal, and ensure a top half of the table finish, with the winning goal coming from birthday boy Ollie Balmer in the 64th minute. 

The result left visitors Beaconsfield still in the thick of the relegation battle, with a crucial six pointer at home to Plymouth Parkway on Saturday, although their destiny is still in their own hands.
Beaconsfield included a former Winchester player Dan Bradshaw in their manager is Jon Underwood who was previously on the management team of Slough Town.

Having had the tough schedule of playing two midweek fixtures on tip of Saturday's fixture at Bracknell Winchester made three changes to their starting eleven from Thursday with Ollie Balmer, I K Hill and Josh McCormick who was returning from injury replacing Tommy Wright, Dan Jones and Mark Jamison all of whom were on the substitutes bench.

The first half was fairly uneventful with most of the shooting being off target. Ada Okorogheye had a goal disallowed following a cross from Bradshaw. Winchester's best chances of the first half resulted in shots from Caborn and Hill, but both were off target. For Beaconsfield James Dobson had a free kick which which hit the side netting, but it was still goalless at the interval.

The all important goal came in the 64th minute when following a corner Jordan Rose headed the ball into the path of Balmer who scored with a bicycle kick. Prior to that the second half had seen an Ollie Balmer free kick deflected wide,while with Luke Cairney out of position Tom McElroy headed just wide.

Having gone in front Winchester responded by replacing Jamie Barron with Max Smith and Sam Ashton with Devon Arnold. The goal seems to have given Winchester a boost and although Beaconsfield are pushing men forward in search of an equaliser good interplay on the right hand side sees Caborn have a powerfully struck shot shot just over, it required a last ditch to deny Ollie Balmer and Caborn also having a shot well saved by Tom Morcott in the Beaconsfield goal.

One sense that Winchester who in the closing minutes Winchester might have to pay for not scoring the second goal when they had the better chances to score the game's next goal and that almost rang true when during the six additional minutes at the end of the game firstly Orokogheye had a chance, but he shot straight at Cairney from close range and a free kick from James Dobson went just wide.

However Winchester achieved the 1-0 win which completes their programme of home match.
At the end of the match Beaconsfield's Josh Payne was red carded for comments he made to the officials.
