Pershore Town 0, West Midlands Police 4

Four goals in a sixteen minute first half spell were enough for West Mids to record their best win of the season against old friends and rivals Pershore Town.

Pershore will rue missing the chances they created in the opening minutes. First a cross from Darren Taft found Simon Judge who headed over from close range. Then a long through ball put Taft clear but he weakly shot straight at Police keeper Ross Bate. Further chances fell to Daniel James Simon Judge but they failed to convert their chances.

West Mids then showed the home side how to do it. On 29 minutes, Gagy Bedi fed martin Brown who's mis-hit cross found Michael Hart who scored with a first time, left foot volleyed shot from 10 yards out that flew inside the near post to give Town keeper Barry McLean no chance. Three minutes later West Mids added goal number 2, when Richard Adams and brother Jon Adams combines to set up Tom Smith who fired home from 10 yards out.

Goal number three came on 43 minutes when Lee Wharmby put pressure on Will Pedley and forced into a hasty pass back to his keeper who in turn was put under pressure by Martin Brown and left him with the simple task of rolling the ball into an empty net.

On the stroke of half time, Wharmby put Brown away down the left flank and he cut inside and neatly slotted home past the advancing keeper.

Pershore did manage to get the ball in the net on 60 minutes, when Ross bate dropped a deep cross and Judge forced the ball home from close range but the referee and linesman both signalled for a foul.
