After their two cup disappointments, Rugby Town returned to winning ways with a very late 1-0 result over Eynesbury Rovers on Saturday.

Goalkeeper Matt Hill had saved a penalty to keep Valley in the game and it looked like being a draw, when sub Lewis Rankin turned in Danico Johnson’s low cross to snatch the points.
