Duane Acheampong leaves Sittingbourne as replacement Chaynie Burgin gets off the mark in 2-0 victory at VCD

Striker Duane Acheampong has been released by Sittingbourne.

The big forward, who impressed on loan last season, joined the Brickies on a permanent deal from Bowers & Pitsea in November.

But he’s made a swift exit, with new boss Ryan Maxwell putting his faith in recent signing Chaynie Burgin.

Burgin proved his worth last night, opening the scoring in a 2-0 victory at VCD as Maxwell picked up his first win.

Home games against East Grinstead, on Tuesday last week, and Chichester, on Saturday, both fell victim to the weather.

They arranged a last-minute friendly against Erith Town at the weekend - winning 2-1 - before last night's league success at VCD.
