DIDCOT Town recorded their first win in beating Winchester City 4-0 at home despite playing with ten men for 77 minutes.

Player-manager Andy Ballard picked up two bookings in the opening 13 minutes in the Evo-Stik Southern League Division 1 South & West clash.

Ben Whitehead put the Railwaymen ahead after just 12 seconds, the fastest goal scored at the Draycott Engineering Loop Meadow Stadium.

Ballard then picked up his second booking and was dismissed.

But his side stayed on the front foot, with Ryan Brooks doubling their lead on 35 minutes.

Didcot keeper Leigh Bedwell saved a Sam Wilson penalty midway through the half, before George Reid made it 3-0 on 43 minutes.

Jack Powell sealed a great team display with No 4 ten minutes from time.

Wantage Town picked up their first point of the campaign in a 1-1 home draw with Evesham.

A 61st-minute penalty from Mark Francis gave Wantage a point after Matt Sysom’s first-half opener for the visitors.

The Freds face Slimbridge this weekend, while Didcot host Larkhall Athletic.
