Rye and Iden maintained their title challenge with a 5-1 away win over Selsey.

Player-boss Scott Price (2), Duncan McArthur (2) and Shaun Loft were their marksmen.

At the other end of the table it was a good day for three of the strugglers.

Two goals from Dean Clark helped Redhill beat Hailsham 3-1 and Sidlesham ended Southwick's mini-revival with a 2-1 win, courtesy of goals from Sean Towers and Joe Leggatt after Jack Dineen had equalised midway through the second half.

Pagham now have a five-point cushion above second-bottom Selsey after a goalless draw at Sidley.
