BARKING & DAGENHAM U11S PAID the price for a slow start as they went down 7-3 to a talented Chelmsford & Mid Essex side on Saturday.

Goals from David Osei-Kaffour, Ethan Wenayeto and Harry Brown did, however, give the side some positives to take into their opening Essex Finch league game next week.
