Rugby Town beat Romulus 3-0 on Saturday and boosted their survival chances, helped by the fact both their relegation rivals lost their games.

Now 20th out of the 22 teams, Rugby went ahead just before half time at 17th-placed Romulus with a goal from David Kolodynski. Ryan Quinn made it 2-0 on the hour and Kolodynski made sure of the points, scoring his second with five minutes to go.
