EAST Allington United 1st XI were well-beaten by a very strong Newton Abbot Spurs side at The Rec on Saturday, October 3, reports Alastair Muirden.

Lewis Breslan and Joel Patchett’s side impressed at both ends of the field in their second success of the season.

Aiden Blackie, Tate Breslan-Aggrey, Harry Ford, Luis Green and Kye Drinkwater scored the Spurs goals and Taylor Breslan kept a clean sheet in between the sticks.

For East Allington meanwhile, they’ve played just twice to date, winning once and losing once.

Whilst most sides have cup games this weekend, the Pirates travel to face Plymouth True Blues for a league clash.

Elsewhere in the SDFL’s Premier Division, Lakeside Athletic sent a catch us if you can message when they beat Paignton Saints at Coach Road to move eight points clear at the summit.

In fact, the rest of the division is offering some competitive football with only four points separating the team third from bottom and the team in second place.

Ilsington Villa seem to be less predictable at Lewthorne Cross these days and a 2-2 draw with Kingsteignton Athletic keeps the teams apart by a single point. Gavin Lake and Matt Warman were on target for the Moorlanders.

Plymouth True Blues found their mojo in inflicting a painful 4–2 defeat for Newton Abbot 66 who have not won a league game since the opening day of the season whilst the game between the bottom two went the way of the visitors.

Chudleigh Athletic picked up their first win with a 3–1 result at Totnes and Dartington who are now the only team in the top division without a point. Jack Wills, George Davidson and Jake Cogavin won the points for the clarets.

In Division One, there were just the three red cards at John Charles Park as Beesands Rovers beat Brixham Town by three goals to two.

Galmpton Utd not only stay top but remain three points clear in Division Tow with a very close 1-nil win at Tavistock AFC 2nds.

Kingskerswell remain second courtesy of super-sub Oscar Mills who scored both of their goals in a win over Ashburton plus Newton Spurs 3rds struck six against Paignton Villa 2nds.

Elsewhere, Ivybridge Town 2nds struck seven against East Allington 2nds and the spoils were shared between True Blues and Liverton.

Stoke Gabriel TP 2nds edged out Chudleigh 2nds in a nine-goal thriller in Division Three and Newton Rovers enjoying a fine 4-nil win over Buckfastleigh 2nds.

Bere Alston Utd 2nds and Ilsington Villa 2nds shared the points in a Division Four nil-nil draw.

Lastly, to Division Five where Kingsbridge and Kellaton Utd got their first league win of the season with a 4-nil home win against Newton Rovers 2nds and Tavistock 3rds leapfrog Newton Albion into third place with a 5 –1 victory versus Waldon Athletic 2nds.

Unfortunately, the clash between WBB 2nds and Paignton Saints 3rds had to be abandoned due to a serious injury and will probably have to be paid.

Get well soon to 16-year-old Charlie Prout who broke his leg in a fair challenge. The game was only nine minutes old when the referee was forced to abandon the fixture due to the distress of teammates and supporters, All of the SDFL football family send their best wishes to Charlie and hope for a quick recovery.
