Millwey Rise 1st X1 0 - Farway Utd. FC 6

If Millwey were looking to build on last week's victory unfortunately this week they came up against far more formidable opponents. Farway were on the front foot from the whistle and although 'Rise' forced the first corner they were put under the cosh from there in. Brett Garner was kept busy in the Millwey goal making several saves from goal bound strikes. Farway gave due warning when in the tenth minute they hit the post and quickly followed this up with a goal. Five minutes later they went two up from a well struck free kick. Minutes later a blow for 'Rise' when influential Nathan Womersley had to go off injured. He was replaced by Joe Osborne. Farway kept up their continual attack on Garner's goal but were unable to add to their score before the end of the half.

TRAILING 3-1 after 56 minutes, Lyme Regis were staring at defeat against the Exeter University 2nd X1 on a wet and a windy afternoon at Davey Fort.  But the Seasiders staged another late comeback and were unlucky not to have taken three points.

Lyme struggled in the opening minutes against the speedy university students and found themselves 1-0 down after just five minutes when the Lyme defence was out-paced in the visitor's first attack.

LYME Regis Bowling Club members ended their season with the annual President's team v Captain's team.

Axminster Town's impressive start to the season continued last night 9Wednesday) with a 7-0 victory over Elmore in the St Luke's Bowl.

Two of the goals came from Jamie Girton, one from the penalty after Rich Hebditch had been brought in the box.

UPLYME first team travelled to Sandford 2nds hoping to build on the previous week's excellent performance.

Even with a number of players unavailable in the defence, it was a good 11 that started the match and dominated from the start.

AFTER a scrappy start against Ilmnster Town A, Charmouth found their feet and began to build pressure and create chances in this Perry Street League Division two clash.

A series of efforts came close and in the 21st minute Ty Allen hit the top corner of the woodwork.

LYME Regis Reserves dominated from the kick-off in their home Devon and Exeter Division Three match against Hemyock on Saturday.

Right from the start the Seasiders' forward players linked up with some good combinations which won a corner in which Gary Knight volleyed into the net from just inside the box.
