WIMBORNE Town continued their progress in the FA Cup with a 2-0 victory at Paulton Rovers.

The two Southern League Division One South clubs played out a goalless stalemate at New Cuthbury on Saturday.

That meant they would face off again in a replay, this time at Winterfield Road in Somerset.

Tim Sills’s side took an early lead through Lewis Beale, inside three minutes.

Paulton struggled in response with Wimborne in control, deservedly doubling their lead through Matty Neale, just before half-time.

The hosts made a double switch at the break and created some early pressure in the second half, without seriously testing Magpies goalkeeper Bert White.

Wimborne closed out the victory, which books a trip to Tiverton Town in the first qualifying round, due to take place on Saturday, September 2, where winners will receive £2,250.
