Newtown finished Phase One of the JD Welsh Premier League in a brilliant fourth place after maintaining their unbeaten home run this season.

The Robins needed a late goal from Neil Mitchell to gain a point against Cefn Druids who had taken a first half lead through Fisnik Hajdari’s half penalty.

Mid Wales will not be represented in the quarter-final of the FAW Trophy after both of our remaining sides were knocked out.

Berriew were undone by a last minute goal at Plas Madoc to go down 3-2, while Four Crosses lost 2-1 at Bodedern Athletic.

In the Huws Gray Alliance, Adam Jenkins bagged a late goal to give Guilsfield a well-earned point at Gresford Athletic, but Llanrhaeadr will be disappointed to have lost 1-0 at home against Holyhead Hotspur to a last minute free kick.

Llanidloes Town have extended their lead at the top of the MMP Mid Wales League to three points after beating Carno 3-1 and then hearing the news that Caersws were held 0-0 at Builth Wells. Llanfair United and Welshpool Town also picked up useful wins to stay in touch with the top three.

Montgomery Town are now seven points clear at the top of Division Two after demolishing Borth United 5-1, while Waterloo Rovers moved second with a 3-2 win at Rhayader.
