WINCHESTER City are a high-flying second in the Evo-Stik Division One South after reeling off their third straight league win.

The Citizens trail early pace-setters Yate Town only on goal difference thanks to a 2-0 bank holiday victory at Moneyfields.

“We were outstanding, brilliant, the best performance we’ve had,” enthused boss Craig Davis.

Having soaked up some early pressure, City led on the half-hour when Oli Bailey flicked on for Jamie Barron to smash in off the underside of the bar.

Had it not been for Moneys’ ex-Totton keeper Steve Mowthorpe, Winchester would have run away with it.

“He made five or six unbelievable saves and I wondered if we’d be made to pay,” said Davis.

“Moneyfields threw six up front but we made a big clearance and Oli (Bailey) has broken at the end to make it 2-0.

“I’m immensely proud of the lads, they gave it everything. Second half was all us.”
