PERSHORE Town were deserved 4-2 winners at bottom-of-the-table Pelsall Villa in Midland League Division One and moved up to 17th in the table.

A goalless first-half saw the hosts reduced to 10 men before Town dominated playing down the slope.

Joe Walsh opened the scoring after 50 minutes with a free-kick.

Town conceded against the run of play but forced Pelsall's keeper into several saves.

Connor Trotman put them back ahead after a good move involving Zach Blood and Matt Chambers.

Steve Roche then scored a brace in the final 10 minutes, being released to slot home and then cutting in from the left to net from 15 yards, before a late Pelsall consolation.

Town entertain Southam United in the Les James Challenge Cup on Saturday (3pm).
