Paulton Rovers 3 - 0 Welton Rovers

Report by Jon Green

Rovers got another preseason win under their belts with a solid display at Winterfield Road against local rivals Welton Rovers.

The first of three goals on the night came in the 21st minute when some good work on the left from 'trialist' offered up a chance for Martin Lenihan who took his opportunity.

The second saw the first goal for Kye Simpson at Winterfield Road. It came in the 31st minute after a long pass found the striker in the box on the left and after cutting in, buried the ball into the bottom corner. Hopefully it will be the first of many!

In the 70th minute, Rovers added the third when a cross from the right was turned in by 'trialist'.

It will be another confidence boost for Rovers who have three more friendly fixtures before the 2023/24 season gets underway.

Next up will be a tough game against Bristol City U23s on Saturday 22nd July. 3.00pm kick-off. See preview for more details.
