GAMES between Bow Street and Radnor Valley are often high-scoring affairs, but their latest meeting at Cae Piod on Saturday ended in a hard-fought goalless draw.

The Magpies will not be too disappointed with a point as they continue their efforts to move away from the lower reaches of the Lock Stock Ardal North East table.

A draw was a fair result, with both defences producing solid displays and limiting clear-cut chances throughout. Bow Street manager Gwion ap Dafydd will take positives from a clean sheet and the commitment shown by the starting XI, who remained on the field for the full 90 minutes.

There was further encouragement as Ap Dafydd completed the match after a lengthy injury lay-off. His return provides a timely boost ahead of Bow Street’s League Cup trip to Penycae on Saturday, 28 November.

Elsewhere, leaders Queens Park eased to a 5-0 victory over Rhos Aelwyd. Callum Robert scored twice, while Harry Jones, Matthew Worrall and Jordan Williams were also on target.

Penycae remain level on points at the top after a 3-0 home win over Llanfair United, courtesy of goals from Jordan Ellis, Josh Millington and Zac Davies.

Harry Edwards earned Builth Wells a 1-0 victory at Carno, while Llangollen Town won 2-1 at Cefn Albion. Llanrhaeadr ym Mochnant thrashed Corwen 7-1, with Kian Thomas and Billy Clarke both scoring twice.
