It was a Friday night to forget for Newtown going down 3-0 against Mid Wales rivals Aberystwyth in the JD Welsh Premier League.
The Robins were always in the game at Park Avenue but Aberystwyth got in front through John McKenna mid-way through the first half.
Chances were at a minimum throughout the second period, but Aber took the ones that came their way, as Craig Hobson notched twice to give his side a comfortable win.
