Paulton put through the mill

North Leigh dominated and deservadly took the points with three second half goals.

Eric Odihambo and George Seacole both tested Rovers keeper Ed Baldy but Paulton nearly took the lead on 16 minutes as Kailan Gould picked up loose ball from keeper Connor Thompson only for Wayne Turk to brake his progress.

Baldy then saved from Morgan Williams and the stopper easily held two free kick's from Stuart Hole and Williams.

On 37 minutes Will Hailston hit a deep cross from the left found george Brimson whose headed looped over the cross bar.

From Gould's crner on the right defender Joe Chandler headed narrowly wide. The Miller's had a great move on half time as McNish, Cook and Williams combined which fizzled out.

The visitors took the lead on the restart after a cross from the right wing from Odihambo was thumped home by Jamie Cook.

Ian Parkes fired the ball over as Paulton responded. North Leigh brought on Roger James after sixty minutes and he made an immediate impact with a deep cross from the left firmly met by Cook to grab his second.

Baldy was again busy stopping Williams and Cook from adding to the tally.

However it was 3-0 on 72 minutes as another sub Matt Woodley cross for captain Stuart Hole to turn home unmarked.

Rovers battled to the end and Hailston belt wide and Ricketts set up Hailston whose shot was turned by keeper Connor Thompson for a corner
