Headers in each half from Steve Metcalf and Ryan McBride put Rebels ahead, before County League Division 1 side Redhill, managed by ex-Worthing boss Simon Colbran, pulled a late goal back through Clinton Moore’s deflected effort.

Rebels boss Chris White featured 25 players during the 90 minutes, again including a number of triallists combined with new signings and a number of last season’s squad.
