Nailsea & Tickenham thrashed Fry Club 5-1 in a fantastic performance in their latest Uhlsport Somerset League Premier Division encounter to maintain their unbeaten start to the season.
After beating Stockwood Green 2-0 at the weekend, The Swags struck early at Somerdale Pavilion when Jared Ford scored with a diving header after just three minutes.
Captain and goalkeeper Jason Mellor was called into action a few times to deny the hosts before Ford doubled his tally five minutes before the interval with a heel flick which beat the keeper.
Ollie Carter then got on the scoresheet to make it 3-0 and just a few minutes later Joe Berry added a fourth goal for the visitors.
Despite being 4-0 down the home side didn’t give in and managed to gain a penalty which was duly converted by James Phillips.
However, Sam Trueman ensured Nailsea & Tickenham had the final word when he connected with a corner from Jacob O'Donnell, who took the man of the match award sponsored by SM Power, to make it 5-1 and cap off a dominant and clinical performance.
Nailsea & Tickenham travel to Stockwood Lane this Saturday to take on Stockwood Wanderers looking over to transfer their league form to the cup.
