Bank Holiday Monday's South action review

However, there was a first win of the season for Market Drayton Town while newly-promoted Basford United slipped into third place in the early-season table.

Tividale have started the new campaign disappointingly and suffered a fourth defeat in five games as Market Drayton broke their duck in Shropshire.

Simon Everall gave the home side a 36th minute lead that Scott Ryan added to on 56 minutes, with James O`Reilly putting the icing on the cake five minutes from time.

Basford beat switched Rugby Town 3-0 at Mill Street, taking a 34th minute lead through Stuart Hendrie – brother of former Villa star Lee.

Ruben Wiggins-Thomas doubled the Nottingham side`s lead six minutes after the break and Dean Meikle made it 3-0 with less than three minutes remaining.

On the 3G at Coles Lane hosts Romulus were on the wrong end of a 2-1 defeat by Chasetown.

James Dance proved to be the Scholars` hero, bagging a brace in the seventh and 60th minutes – the second from the penalty spot – Mitch McDonald sandwiching a reply for the Roms on 49 minutes.

Daventry Town, switched from the Southern League along with Rugby, made it three wins from five matches with a 1-0 success against Carlton Town at Communications Park, Jason Lee scoring winner on 79 minutes.
