Mousehole continued their climb up the Western Premier table on Wednesday night with a deserved victory over a Saltash side who had knocked them out of the Cornwall Senior Cup five days earlier.

The Ashes, buoyant after a superb 2-1 cup win at Trungle Park, went into the game at a drizzly Kimberley defending a six-match unbeaten run.

It was raining goals at a soaked Langsford Park on Saturday as Tavistock jumped to the top of the table for the first time this season after smashing five goals past previously unbeaten Shepton Mallet.

On a pitch which stood up well to morning downpours, Josh Grant and Liam Prynn hit two goals each and the other was added by Jake Miller as Stuart Henderson’s side underlined their title aspirations.
