SKURRAY'S WILTSHIRE LEAGUE: WARMINSTER Town may be looking for a quick return to the Screwfix League but they could not match the enthusiasm shown by a young Trowbridge Town side defending their unbeaten Premier Division home record.
Trowbridge took the lead in the 35th minute when Simon Kitchen met a right wing cross from Dave Percival to score from close range.
Warminster had their best chance after 75 minutes when a fierce shot struck the crossbar following a corner. After this let off, Trowbridge took control again, first Tim Waylen just failed to control the ball after beating the offside trap, then substitute Booker Woodford failed with a shot that went straight at Warminster goalkeeper Shuttlewood.
Some excellent work by Percival produced another fine save from Shuttlewood but Woodford pounced on the loose ball to slot the ball home for a deserved victory.
Trowbridge are at home again this Saturday v Biddestone, kick-off 3pm.
