An excellent performance from Bideford saw them beat North Molton for the third time in 3 cup matches this year. Goals from Matt Downing, Sam Schiller and Matt Bryce showed that they are back to winning ways after a difficult few weeks. I will try and post a report before the end of Sunday.

I would however like to mention that the players had a collection and donated their fines and raised £80 for the North Devon Hospice in memory of goalkeeper Ali Bright's mother who sadly passed away last week. The thoughts of players and supporters are with him and his family.

Goals from Ellis Laight and Kevin Squire strengthen Bidefords position at the top of the Toolstation League table. Nine Points ahead of Ilfracombe who lost today.
