Devonshire Colts hit Lobster Pot for six at White Hill Field yesterday -- a result predicted before the match by Pot's strangely prophetic skipper Fergus Daly.

But despite the scoreline the visitors were content to let Pot simmer rather than really turn up the heat.

Quincey Aberdeen netted at the near post after seven minutes and picked the same spot as he added to his tally five minutes later.

Pot deserve credit for continuing to play football -- although they played most of it in their own half.

Forward balls to striker Troy Berkeley often found the ex-Somerset Trojans man outnumbered or offside.

Pot's best chance fell Berkeley's way after a searching cross from Eamon Brady found him unmarked but he headed wide.

Marvin Belboda made it three after giving stopper Iain Paul the slip with a neat dummy near the half-way line and then racing clear to score.

And Belboda got his second two minutes from the break with a goal which looked distinctly offside.

Jermaine Belboda hit an unstoppable 20-yard screamer 12 minutes after the restart while sub Lloyd Holdipp made it six when he broke down the right and slipped the ball under the keeper.

Colts could have had a few more but a combination of wasteful finishing and some fine tackling by centre half James Scanlon and midfielder Adrian White managed to break up many a Colts attack before it got started.

However Colts and national squad skipper Shannon Burgess was well pleased with the result.

"This is the best we have played all year,'' he said.

"I say that not because of the opposition but because we actually thought to play football today.

"I think we can do that week in and week out, we just need to bring the intensity up a bit. "Strikers were dropping the ball off and full backs were running into spaces behind them.

"Our minds were in the right place and we were able to show we were the superior team. They had a good effort but we have younger legs and on a big pitch like White Hill that should prevail.'' Dandy Town 6 MR Onions 1 Dandy Town responded with five strikes in the second half after an own goal by Kevin Hurdle had taken Commercial League MR Onions into the interval all square.

Onions made Town sweat when they equalised after 35 minutes, following a corner by Duncan Ashworth that was headed into the net by Hurdle.

That came after Town had taken a lead after just five minutes through Carlos Smith who finished the day with a hat-trick. The St. John's Road team also had a goal disallowed midway through the first half.

With Onions tiring, Town dominated after the break with Smith cracking home two more and Mark Trott scoring twice and Raymond Beach adding another.

Onions had two close calls with a shot by Ashworth saved and Stephen Ludgate putting a chance over the bar early in the half but there was never much doubt who would emerge victorious.

YMSC 1 Exiles 0 A sixth minute goal from Runako Hill proved the difference between Young Mens Social Club and Exiles at Bernard Park.

Exiles keeper, Steve Western, committed himself to challenging Erick Dunkley, but the Social Club player lifted the ball high in the direction of Hill who guided it over the line for one of the simplest goals he will ever score.

In the overall scheme of things the goal was tough on Exiles, who had their fair share of opportunities to either force extra-time or take the tie outright.

Coach Derek Young was rightly proud of his team's battling performance.

"We had a tough game today, but I thought the guys played well as a Second Division team,'' he said. "We lost by one goal, but you can't win them all.

"We had our chances, it's just too bad we couldn't capitalise on them, but that's the way the game goes sometimes.

"I think we should be really proud. We are out of the FA Cup, but we are second in the league and now it's a matter of pressing on with the league and see if we can win our division.'' Exiles' Blane Tucker was the first to serve warning that it was not going to be one-way traffic, coming close with a rising shot from an acute angle on 20 minutes.

Five minutes later Martin Siese broke down a Social Club attack and ploughed forward before feeding Treadwell Walker. His shot was low and hard but keeper Shejuan Swan was behind it all the way.

Siese had an opportunity of his own seconds later, but Swan saved at the second attempt.

Social Club came back with a low free kick to the feet of Raymond Burgess, who despite coming under close attention from a defender managed to get his shot away and forced Western into a save.

Social Club looked to have doubled their advantage early in the second half but Burgess' handball was spotted by the lady assistant referee.

The same player came close again in the 54th minute, but his shot was deflected wide for a corner and it was Burgess again causing havoc four minutes later, forcing a last ditch clearance.

With about 10 minutes left Exiles earned themselves a free kick in a central position outside the box. The ball was played to Walker but although his shot was on target, Swan read it well and was able to save.

Burgess had another opportunity to seal the match but fired wide from a good angle, before Exiles thought they were on the way to the equaliser their play deserved.

Walker was fouled on the left and his momemtum carried him into the box. With his team-mates looking at the referee for a penalty, Erlston Wolfe deemed the incident to have taken place a foot outside the area.

Walker fired in the resultant free kick low and hard but there was no-one in the box to take advantage and Exiles were left to think about what might have been.

Women's FA Cup Rude Girls 8 Dandy Stars 1 Beaten in last year's FA Cup final, Rude Girls demonstrated their intention to make amends this season with this semi-final trouncing at Devonshire Rec.

yesterday.

Leading the goal feast was Tamisha Darrell who scored four, helping her team take a comfortable 6-0 lead at the interval.

Also netting for Rude Girls were Chevonne Furbert, Naquita Dill, Shivon Washington and Sakena Clarke who converted a penalty.
