Brentwood came into this game fairly confident after their 7-4 victory over Bishop's Stortford the previous week, although with Bluehearts undefeated and only having conceded one goal so far this season, Brentwood were anticipating a tough fixture.
The opening exchanges proved just that but Brentwood were the first to settle, with Cashel Gleeson firing a well-struck shot past the Bluehearts keeper to finish off a well-worked Brentwood move.
Bluehearts hit back strongly though and following some lapse marking in the Brentwood defence, their centre forward was released one on one with Kris Spurling in the Brentwood goal. Spurling took down the Bluehearts forward and they duly dispatched the resulting penalty flick to make it 1-1.
That though only seemed to spur Brentwood on, and from that point they started to take control of the game.
Most of the chances were falling for Brentwood, and apart for a couple of saves, Spurling, in the Brentwood goal was largely untroubled.
Brentwood eventually scored again when James Duggan finished off a well worked short corner, to take his tally to seven for the season, and that was soon followed by a goal from Alex Haynes to make it 3-1.
Simon Chambers then added a close range finish to make it 4-1 at the break.
Brentwood knew Bluehearts would come out strongly after the break and although they did, Brentwood held strong and added a fifth goal in almost comical fashion to pretty much kill off the game as a contest.
The Bluehearts goalkeeper made a huge hash of an attempted clearance with no players near him, but then just stopped and watched as the ball trickled towards the goal.
Simon Chambers chased it down and slid the ball home for his second goal of the game.
As Brentwood had more and more possession, more chances came and Paul Haynes soon followed his brother into the score book following another good Brentwood move.
Robert Fryer then added a seventh Brentwood goal with a strong strike from a short corner as Brentwood eventually cruised to a victory.
And having now scored 20 goals in their last three games Brentwood will be brimming with confidence for what they hope will be a successful rest of the campaign.
Brentwood play Witham away next, followed by their next home game against West Herts on October, 20 pushback is at 12.30pm at Becket Keys School.
