CONSTABLE LOCKS IT UP FOR DOLPHINS

- By Jay Richardson

POOLE Town came away from The Ian Moorcroft Stadium with a deserved three points after a clinical display in Devon.

Poole opened up brightly with James Constable, Sam Griffin and Luke Roberts looking very dangerous.

It was that man Constable who nearly opened the scoring on 20 minutes but he was denied by a great Liam Armstrong save.

The pressure was piling on and the home team had only half chances to show for their efforts.

On the stroke of half time Poole took the lead when the Dolphins broke into the box and Constable slammed home the ball into the corner of Armstrong's net.

The second half saw Poole Town continue where they left off and it was no surprise that on 55 minutes the Dolphins doubled their lead.

Roberts broke into the box and fired past Armstrong giving the keeper no chance.

Tivvy huffed and puffed but there was no way through the Poole Town defence marshalled by the impressive captain Will Spetch.

After this victory, and with games in hand, Poole appear to be marking themselves out as serious play off contenders while Tiverton slip to their third defeat in their last four games.
