After a couple of wins Royal Wootton Bassett Town Development had lost at home to Shrewton last week and were looking to return to winning ways at home to Melksham Town Reserves today. Melksham went into the game on the back of three wins in their last four and having won 2-1 in the first meeting of the two sides back in January. The wind once again played havoc at the very open Gerard Buxton Ground but despite playing against the wind it was Melksham who led 1-0 at the break. Three unanswered second half goals secured a comfortable 4-0 win for the visitors who completed the double over their opponents in the process. On target for Melksham were Kieron Pearce, Adam Mitchell, Kurt Hammonds and a spectacular strike from the half-way line from Owen Bartley with a little help from that wind.
