Brian Sparrow quit as Rams boss following another disappointing defeat at the hands of Horsham YMCA.

The club stated the departure was by "mutual consent" and Sparrow leaves the Rams 13th in Ryman Division One South.

The crucial goal which put the visitors on their way was scored by james Grant.

The Horsham striker made the most of poor Rams defending and saw his shot beat keeper James Wastell from just outisde the box.

The Rams' cause was not helped five minutes later when they were reduced to 10-men.

Striker Charley Side was dismissed after picking up his second caution for a foul on the YMCA keeper.

Sparrow introduced Billy Jackson and Simon Moore in the bid to net a late equaliser and the move nearly paid off.

But Scott Kirkwood scored YMCA's second to seal the points as full-time beckoned to pour more misery on the Rams.
