BASINGSTOKE RFC are 11 points adrift at the bottom of London Two South West after falling to their fourth consecutive defeat at the start of the season.

Their latest defeat came at home to mid-table Warlingham on Saturday, the visitors going away from Down Grange with a bonus-point victory after winning 33-10.

Basingstoke have failed to pick up a single point from their opening four games, meaning they remain bottom of the table with -5 points, 11 points adrift of their nearest rivals.

Stoke are without a game this weekend, but they return to action with a trip to local rivals Winchester on October 24.
