Axminster Reserves opened up a two-point lead at the top of the Devon and Exeter league Division Two East with a 4-2 away win over Ottery St Mary 2nds on Saturday.

Heavy rain at the end of the week and overnight on Friday led to a number of local games being called off. But a few games did beat the weather.
AFTER a frustrating start to the season the young and inexperienced Lyme Rovers side picked up a well-deserved three points yesterday with 3-2 victory over Pymore.
