CHRIS Chaplin has stepped down as manager of Basingstoke Athletic, but will continue as secretary.
Players Lee O’Grady and Paul Taylor have taken over and they started in good style by beating Origin Headley 2-1 in the first round of the Basingstoke B Cup.
Paul Taylor had a goal disallowed for offside before Origin took the lead from Johnnie Gurney. Kieran Challis equalised from the penalty spot and Athletic's winner came from George Byrne
