Paulton completed their pre-season friendlies with a sound win over the spirited Gas youngsters.

The visitors started off well until Paulton, against the run of play, went ahead with a flicked near post header by Josh Ford.

This sparked Ray Johnston's men and they made it 2-0 in the 22nd minute with a cracker of a shot from man of the match Dan McBeam.

The Gas looked better in the second half until yet again the hosts got on top.

Kitan Jaiyeboa, McBeam and Dan Cottle all had chances.

The third Paulton goal came from a superb dribbling run by Milo Murgatroyd in the 71st minute finishing by drilling a low shot that nestled in the corner of the net.

Saturday sees the start of Paulton's Jewson League Premier Division season at home to Nailsea & Tickenham kick off 3-00 p.m. before a trip next Wednesday to Street.
