Paulton came into this game after three consecutive draws, to face second-placed Dunstable Town. There was a bumper crowd for Non-League Day and a number of clubs and schools had accepted Rovers' invite to come to the match.
The home side launched early attacks through eighteen-year-old Elliott Gibbons, combining with Dean Evans and Mike Bryant. Dunstable responded with Charlie Henry heading wide from a Ryan Plowright cross. Henry had figured before at Winterfield Road for Newport County in 2009, a game won 1–0 as Paulton went on to face Norwich City in the First Round of the FA Cup.
Town looked a danger through new signing, Gary Mulligan, who set up winger, Tony Burnett, whose shot was blocked by Evans. Mulligan then headed wide from Henry's cross. The home side gained the initiative when Jon Davies sent Nick McCootie down the left. He held off his marker and lobbed keeper, Luke Chambers, to give Paulton a 1–0 lead.
Burnett linked with Scott Davies as Town sought to get back in the game. Burnett had a shot smothered by Kyle Phillips and then Ollie Knowles blocked Davies. On 25 minutes, a delightful turn by McCootie saw him run on and hit a curling shot, bringing a great save from the diving Chambers. Henry then attempted a long-range shot which sailed over the bar.
Rovers made it 2–0 after 35 minutes, as Jon Davies seized on a poor clearance and found Bryant, who tucked the ball into the net. Then early in the second half, Bryant had a strike which hit the crossbar and was cleared away.
As Dunstable strove forward, Phillips pulled off a string of top-drawer saves. Burnett, on 56 minutes, turned aside a low Henry shot before saving from Mulligan. Scott Davies pulled a goal back with a cracking 25-yards free kick, giving home keeper, Kyle Phillips, no chance on 71 minutes.
Town were now pressing hard and with four minutes left, Ollie Knowles brought down Gary Mulligan and Captain, Ben Herd, banged home the penalty to give the visitors a point. There was time for both sides to snatch a win, Henry had a drive deflected by Phillips and at the other end, substitute, Josh Klein-Davies, and Gibbons both had chances saved by Chambers.
Non-League Day was well supported, with a crowd of 246, including representatives from several local schools and junior football teams. Local Midsomer Norton charity, SWALLOW (South West Action For Living Our Way), held a collection and chose Nick McCootie as Man of the Match.
