After a gruelling start to the season that saw Watcombe Wanderers suffer six straight defeats in the Scott Richards Solicitors Devon Football League, the Torbay outfit recorded their first win in superb style last weekend.

Drawing 0-0 with visitors Lakeside Athletic at the interval, Watcombe produced a stunning second-half to run out 5-1 winners, with a double from Chalmers-Wood and further goals from Constantinou, Nolan and Warde.

Okehampton Argyle and Buckland Athletic Reserves were also powerful winners in the South & West Division. New signing Rob Knight got off the mark in Okehampton’s 5-0 defeat of Kingsteignton Athletic, while there were goals from Dan Rankin, Cliff Walters, Callum Livingstone and Ryan Stanbridge in Buckland’s 4-0 victory over Bere Alston.

Plympton Athletic kept up the high-scoring theme with a 5-2 triumph over Waldon Athletic, Sam Davey scored twice in a 3-1 win for Plymstock at home to Totnes & Dartington, and Newton Abbot Spurs Reserves won 2-1 at Roselands.

In the North & East Division, there was a shock defeat for leaders Teignmouth at Liverton. In a terrific game of football that saw Teigns twice draw back on level terms, Neil Last lived up to his name with a last-minute winner for Livvy.

A Mark Saunders goal and Nathan May’s brace cemented third place for Exwick Villa, as they won 3-0 at Heavitree United, and Topsham Town were equally efficient in a 4-1 win over Chudleigh that included a double from Ethan Phillips.

Ryan Moody was simply sensational for Alphington, scoring all four goals in their 4-1 win over Budleigh Salterton, and birthday boy Kevin Pike was the star man for St Martins in a 2-1 triumph against Exmouth Town Reserves.

Braunton were brilliant in our final game from the weekend, with special mention to Ben Aiken, who notched four goals in the 6-1 win at Clyst Valley.
