Wootton Bassett followed their midweek success against Chippenham with a resounding 7-0 victory against Laverstock and Ford on Bank Holiday Saturday. Bassett took full advantage of a newly promoted and inexperienced home team although they did take time to settle down and find their rhythm. Tony Vines opened the visitor's account in the 20th minute with a well taken header from a corner. The goal proved to be the spur Bassett needed and three more were added before the interval, two from Damon York and one from Frost.

The second half saw the side push on relentlessly though at one stage it seemed as though they might be unable to add to their first half flurry. However, Frost added the fifth from a corner, York got their sixth and his hat-trick after being given the simplest of chances by brother Peter. The final nail in Laverstock and Ford's coffin was banged home by Harrison, who bustled his way through a demoralised defence and fired a left foot shot across the keeper and into the net.
