Real United 1 Newark Town 5
10:30am Mon Jan 30, 2012
The Blues successfully made the transition from grass to plastic on Saturday as they finished comfortable winners over a Real United side.
On the Central Midlands South Division's only artificial surface goals from Dom Swingler, Zico Grinion, Ricky Brewer, Craig Roche and Luke Parsons made the scoreline look a little more emphatic than the plucky hosts deserved.
Boss Tony Joynes said: "We adapted well to the playing surface. We had an excellent first-half, and although the opposition were better after the break, we dug in well after conceding a goal.
"There were five different scorers again, and three of the goals came from 25 or 30 yards out - which is always positive.
"I'm very happy with the way things are going at the moment and this result keeps the pressure on the sides at the top of the table.
Newark have a vital game next Saturday as they visit Pinxton, who sit one place and one point behind the Blues.
