A MIXED day for Uplyme FC. The 1sts, missing even regular starters, travelled to high-scoring Exeter University 6ths and were soundly beaten 8 - 0. 

"They thoroughly deserved their win," said manager Steve Gillan. "The ref felt the scoreline flattered them, but they were the most attacking side we've faced in years - 80 goals this season doesn't flatter them.

"We went without a huge chunk of our normal squad and gave it our best efforts." 

This defeat leaves The Swallows in 19th position in the devon and Exeter Division Four with 16 points from 14 games. Next Saturday they are at home to second from bottom Exeter United 1sts.

Uplyme Reserves  powered to a 6 - 2 win in the first round of the Daisy Hutchings Cup, with three goals from Brad Bowditch, two from new signing Alex Goodrick and one from Oli Pearce. They travel to Kingsbury in the next round.

Next Uplyme Reserves are away to Perry Street Division Three leaders Yetminter United.
