Champions Hakin United have gone two points clear at the top of table of the Manderwood Pembrokeshire Football League First Division on the last Saturday games played of the season.

The Vikings travelled to Jesse Road and came away with a 0-2 victory against Narberth. After a nervous and goalless first half the Vikings broke the deadlock through a well-taken goal scored by Ashley Bevan, the visitors put the game safe when James Stanmore struck for the second goal.

Hakin United have played the same number of games as second placed Goodwick United, the latter didn’t have a game on Saturday as they play in the West Wales Intermediate Cup Final on Tuesday, May 3rd against Morriston Olympic at the Liberty Stadium.

Johnston lost 1-4 at home against close neighbours Neyland. The Tigers took an early lead through Ryan Doyle, but the Nomads fought back with a stunning hat-trick by Justin Harding and a solitary strike by Andrew Davies.

Angle gained a comfortable 4-0 win against relegated St Clears at Windmill Lane. Jason Evans scored a brace alongside goals from Connor Willis and Josh Clarke.

Merlins Bridge sealed a comfortable 3-1 win against relegated Herbrandston at the Racecourse. Ben Skudder scored twice alongside a first half strike by Steven McNabney, Ashton Plunkett scored for the visitors.

Pennar Robins suffered a 1-8 hiding against West Dragons at Bush Camp. Dragons’ player boss Matthew Price led the rout with four goals, Nathan Greene scored a brace and Ewan Cunningham and Scott Crawford also scored for the highflying visitors. The Robins’ only goal scorer was Stuart James.

Tenby edged a 2-1 result against Milford United at the Clicketts. Sam Christopher and Dave Rees scored for the Seasiders, and Ben Aldred scored a penalty for the Robins.
