STUDLEY'S title ambitions took a blow as Quorn netted in the second half to take all three points.

The Bees are nine points behind Alliance leaders Rocester but still have three games in hand.

Bees boss Mark Chambers said: "I was disappointed . We played well and created a lot of chances in the first half but Quorn came to defend in depth and they did well."

Chambers has freshened up his squad by pulling in Junior Hewitt and Ian McVarish from Alliance rivals Racing Club Warwick.

He said: "McVarish was at Redditch at the start of the season and has ended up at Warwick.

"We're coming to the end of the season and I think we need to strengthen the squad.

"We've got a couple of suspensions in Mark Beddows and Mark Neath."
