Paulton Rovers slipped to defeat at the hands of Somerset rivals Bridgwater Town.

The visitors took the game to the home side from the opening whistle and took the lead after half an hour when Chris Young laid the ball off to Marcus Duharty, who went clear to beat goalkeeper Kyle Phillips.

Paulton improved in the second half but the nearest they came to equalising was in the 89th minute when a Ben Cleverley free-kick was cleared to Ricky Hulbert and his shot was blocked on the line with the goalkeeper beaten.
