![]() In the second half City rode their luck as they looked for an equaliser but felt cheated when Chippenham scored their third from a supposedly mishit drop kick from goalkeeper Chris Snoddy. The home team doubled their advantage just before the break when a long punt forward fell kindly for dangerous forward Sean Seavill who cooly slotted the ball past the outrushing Kev Sawyer. Will Morford, reaplacing tghe sick Marcus Palmer gave the Tigers a ninth minute lead when he swept home a Matt Rose shot from close range but the Bluebirds forced their way back into the game when Ross Adams half volleyed high into the roof of the net from a free kick. Marcus Palmer slams the ball into the empty net after Jamie Reid had scored City's fifth goalĬity's hopes of forcing their way back into the playoff reckoning pretty much died on it's ass at Hardenhuish Park this afternoon when they were humbled 1-4 by Chippenham Town. Tim Harris' Interview - Photos - Alex Sykes' 1st - Jack Pitcher's goal -Īlex Sykes' 2nd - Marcus Palmer's goal - Jamie Reid's goal Jamie Reid put the cherry on the icing on the cake with the fifth in the last minute when he strode in unmarked to smash Jody Bevan's searching angled pass beyond the grasp of the now fed up King. Syko got his second and City's third when he was well positioned to place a shot into the bottom right hand corner from Lee Smith's cut back and Marcus Palmer made it four with an oh so cool finish to sign off from his month's loan. Jack Pitcher doubled the lead within four minutes when either ex-Tiger Chris Thompson or the City striker got the final touch to a low cross from Will Morford, needless to say Jack claimed the goal. Supermarine may as well've stayed in the changing room for the second half as they were ripped apart by the rampant Tigers. He should've made it two in two minutes when a poorly executed tackle by defender Cedric Abraham on Tom Webb saw the Tigers awarded yet another penalty but King became the first goalkeeper to block a Syko spot kick in nine attempts. ![]() That was a real let off because Alex Sykes continued his rich vein of form when he opened the scoring with a right footed shot from just inside the box. ![]() At the other end Kev Sawyer could consider himself lucky to escape a red card after he charged off his line and collided with an onrushing Swindon forward but the referee only cautioned the City keeper. The first half hour seemed to be a hangover from the Chippenham game as Supermarine strived to become the second Wiltshire team to slay the Tigers inside three days as Tim Harris' men struggled to test ex-City keeper Tom King in the Swindon goal. City did as much as they could to keep their playoff dreams alive with what was ultimately a comfortable win against Swindon Supermarine at the New Lawn.
