HETHERSETT Ladies had a very disappointing 6-1 home defeat at the hands of Arlesley Town with their only goal coming from Emma Mulley.

Defeat sees them drop to fourth place in the Eastern Region Women’s Premier Division, but they are still just three points behind leaders Barking.

This week they travel to Stevenage in the quarter-finals of the League Cup, a trophy they have won for the last three seasons.

Meanwhile, Hethersett Hearts went down 4-1 at home to Acle.
