HARRISON DELIGHTED AS SAINTS SEAL TITLE

- By Chris Smart

BOSS Craig Harrison was a proud man after The New Saints were crowned Welsh Premier League champions for the sixth season in a row after a 4-0 victory over Bangor City last night.

Adrian Cieslewicz put TNS in front before Jamie Mullan, with two, and Steven Saunders also found the net.

Harrison said of the title: “This one for me, apart from the first one, is the best one.”

In the other Championsh­ip group games, Emlyn Lewis struck late to earn Cardiff

Metropolit­an University a 2-2 draw with Carmarthen Town – who were well set after goals from Lee Surman and Liam Thomas.

A leveller from Ryan Wignall secured a 1-1 draw for Gap

Connah’s Quay at Bala Town. In the Conference group, two from Alex Fletcher set up a 4-1 win for Newtown over Airbus

UK. Newtown led through Tony Gray. Jason Oswell levelled before Fletcher scored twice and Kieran Mills-Evans added a fourth.

Phil Baker’s loan from TNS paid dividends for Aberystwyt­h

Town who drew 2-2 at Rhyl. Two free-kicks from Baker produced goals for Mark Jones and Geoff Kellaway. Josh Davies and Toby Jones netted for Rhyl. Cefn

Druids continued their fine form with a 0-0 draw at Llandudno. Barry Town United took a stride towards a Welsh Premier return with a 3-0 victory at Port

Talbot Town in Division One of the Welsh League. On target were Curtis Watkins, Louis Gerrard and Jordan Cotterill. Barry stay a point clear of

Goytre, who cruised home 4-1 against Undy Athletic. Dan McDonald, Luke Foster, Lewis Summers and Josh Brown were the marksmen.

Llanelli Town continued their match towards the Division Two title with a 4-0 romp over Aberbargoe­d Buds.
