Early Charlie Walker strike earns Aldershot win at Boreham Wood

The hosts were still reeling from the shock of manager Ian Allinson's resignation on Monday, but rallied after a poor start to give Barry Smith's men a stiff test.

The Shots hit the front in the first 10 minutes. A Damon Lathrope free-kick caused havoc in the box, Richard Brodie struck the post, and his forward partner Charlie Walker was handily placed to bundle the ball in.

Boreham Wood made a fight of it in the second half. Ricky Shakes was a threat, forcing a diving save by Phil Smith with the help of his upright. They could not however, recover a point.
