Weekend round-up as Welling United hit Isthmian Premier summit through 1-0 home win over AFC Whyteleafe while Sittingbourne, Margate, Ashford United, Whitstable Town and Punjab United taste victory in Isthmian South East

Welling United hit the Isthmian Premier summit with a home win on Saturday.

Nahum Melvin-Lambert got the game’s only goal against AFC Whyteleafe at Park View Road for Ryan Maxwell’s men, who overtake Dartford - who were in FA Cup third qualifying round action - at the top.

Ramsgate lost a five-goal game to third-placed Carshalton.

Alfie Paxman and Cameron James found the net in a losing cause for Ady Pennock’s men at Southwood.

In Isthmian South East, Sittingbourne saw off Merstham 2-1 at home.

Jordan Greenidge netted what was to be the winner for the Brickies after Joe Boachie’s opener had swiftly been cancelled out by the Moatsiders.

Fellow Isthmian South East play-off occupants Margate edged a five-goal game at Peacehaven & Telscombe.

Two-goal Ryan Huke led the way, his first an 11th-minute penalty, after fellow Gate midfielder Bradley Schafer had broken the deadlock in just the sixth minute with a spot-kick of his own.

Herne Bay went down 4-3 to Steyning Town at home.

On-loan Welling United midfielder Ryan Kingsford’s injury-time effort was in vain - as were goals in each half from the prolific Joe Taylor and Romel Aarons Royal.

Having waited eight league matches to taste victory, Punjab United made it two triumphs on the spin through a 3-2 home success over Horley Town.

Substitute Hudson Scudder got the winner for Chipie Sian’s side while defender Stephen Ratcliff and attacker Will Johnson-Cole were on target in each half, too.

Whitstable recovered from conceding a fourth-minute opener to bag a 3-1 victory at Broadbridge Heath.

Ramsgate loanee TJ Jadama quickly equalised for Lee Martin’s men before Kenny Aileru and veteran substitute striker Derek Asamoah were also on target.

Ashford came from behind to secure a 3-1
