It was one way from Rovers and Thomas completed his hattrick rounding the keeper after Felix through ball.

It was six on 41 minutes, O’Hare won the ball and broke through rounded the keeper to tap home.

Lymington pushed hard with wind in the second half but Paulton made it 7–0 after 48 minutes from a delicious cross from the left to give Harvey his

second.

Rovers defended manfully with 17-year-old youth player Joe Paradise having a comfortable game with Dan Dempsey at the heart of the defence.

The Linnets had a great chance when from the half way line Callum Davies hit the cross bar.
