East Devon v Mid-Somerset 3rds.
 
Joel Butcher's pacey run into the 'D' culminated in a fizzing flick to open Mids' tally. Rich Connick pulled a muscle after 5 minutes and his departure caused such disarray that East Devon equalized. The game took on an odd complexion. East Devon retained the ball for long periods playing a passing game that belied their lowly league position. But the hosts couldn't break through the Mids defence. On the one occasion their striker was presented with an open goal he elected to use the reverse stick method which resulted in his nomination for the "miss of the season" award. Sneddon pulled off a fine diving save when the Devonians pressed again but Mids regained the lead when Chorlton rolled back the years with some intricate stick work and a fine finish. Breakaway goals by Dan Mehlig and Butcher's second put the result in the bag. The real test will be against Taunton Vale this weekend when Mids look to take the 3 points that would place them second in the league.
