Bottom of the table the Lamb Inn turned their poor league
form around as they gained a 3-2 victory over leaders the Eleven Statues in
their first round, first leg match in the E J Shanley and Son
Limited-sponsored Division Two Cup.
The Lamb opened the scoring through Dan Filer and doubled their lead midway
through the half when Damien Hateley scored.

was only a few minutes old when Hateley scored his second goal to make it
3-1 to the bottom side.
The Eleven Statues got themselves back into the game with their second goal
to make sure they stayed in touch for the second leg in two weeks' time.

defender handled inside the box. Lavington made it 4-0 on the stroke of
halftime as Myles Hickton scored his second goal.
The second period got no better for the visitors as two minutes after the
break it was 5-0 as Hickton completed a well deserved hat-trick. Rob Hannah
took his opportunity on 68 minutes to make it 6-0 before Hickton rounded off
the scoring after 74 minutes with his fourth goal of the match.
Bratton played out the last 12 minutes with only 10 men after Kerry Wilson
limped off with a groin strain after all their substitutes had been used.
Mere Town 3, Semington Magpies 0

defence.
Adil Bakali pulled a goal back for the visitors just before the break.

themselves down to 10 men with Salim Bekkaoui getting himself sent off.
