Windsor & Eton manager Simon Lane will be looking for a remarkable improvement after he saw his side concede five without reply away at Paulton Rovers.

Nick Hudson struck twice with Dale Peckham, Rick Hulbert and Pete Sheppard also hitting the net.

Windsor were looking to bounce back after their mid-week defeat away at Oxford City and came close early on when Mark Cooper headed James Edgerley's corner goalwards only for Ben Cleverley to head off the line.

It was Cleverley that would prove to be the thorn in Windsor's side as not only did he go close minutes later but was responsible for setting up all five goals.

Mid-way through the half it was Cleverley's free kick that found the head of Nick Hudson at the far post who put the ball past Sam Mazurek.

Late in the half Cleverley again sent the ball into the box from a corner and this time set up Dale Peckham to head the ball in.

Into first half injury time and Cleverley completed his hat-trick of assists when another corner found Peckham who was denied by Mazurek only for Rick Hulbert to pick up the rebound.

A poor start to the second half saw Paulton earn a penalty when Cooper pulled back Peckham when trying to get on the end of Cleverley's free kick.

Hulbert stepped up to take the free kick but was unable to get past Mazurek who did well to keep the ball out.

The game was well and truly over within 10 minutes of the second half starting when Cleverley set up Pete Sheppard with an easy finish.

Michael Chennels had a glorious chance to pull a goal back when he was put through by James Edgerley only for the Windsor front man to send the ball high over the bar.

With 20 minutes left Paulton added their fifth when another Cleverely corner wasn't dealt with and Hudson added his second of the game.

Into the final few minutes and an altercation between Mark Burgess and Ash Barnes resulted in the Windsor defender getting sent off for allegedly kicking out.

The numbers were levelled in injury time when, after all his good work setting up the goals, Cleverley was sent off for kicking out at Edgerley.
