THIS weekend’s matches in the Pembrokeshire Second Division were filled with goals, drama, and standout performances. Camrose continued their dominant run, Fishguard Sports demonstrated their strength, while both Lawrenny and Broad Haven remain in trouble. Here’s a detailed breakdown of each match:

Camrose 7-1 Lawrenny
Camrose delivered a stunning 7-1 win over a struggling Lawrenny side. Hat-tricks from Jordan Raymond and veteran Martyn Tweedie, along with a goal from Scott Chalmers, showcased Camrose’s attacking prowess. Tweedie’s experience is clearly proving invaluable, as he continues to lead the team from the front. Lawrenny’s James Phillips scored a consolation goal, but it was another tough outing for them. Since stepping up from Division Three, Lawrenny have struggled to adapt and currently sit at the bottom of the table. If they don’t find form soon, a long hard season could become a reality.

Fishguard Sports 5-0 Carew ll
Fishguard Sports asserted their dominance with a 5-0 demolition of Carew ll, thanks to goals from Luke Thomas, Ieuan Lewellyn, Greg Hughes, Anthony Couzens, and Haydn Hughes. This win solidifies Fishguard’s position as one of the strongest teams in the division, and they currently sit third in the standings. The balance in their squad was on full display, with goals coming from multiple players. As they keep pushing for promotion, Fishguard will be a team to watch out for.

Hakin United ll 0-2 Neyland
Neyland picked up a crucial 2-0 away victory over Hakin United ll, with Sean Hannon and Aidan Rees finding the back of the net. This win keeps Neyland competitive in the league’s top half, while Hakin United ll were unable to respond. Neyland’s defense and disciplined performance on the road were key to their success, putting them in a good position moving forward.

Merlins Bridge ll 3-1 Broad Haven
Merlins Bridge’s second string secured a solid 3-1 win against Broad Haven, with goals from George Mabuzane, Jamie Palmer, and Will Evans. Broad Haven’s Spencer Lepetit managed a goal, but it wasn’t enough to lift them from the bottom of the table. Currently sitting second-bottom with just one point, Broad Haven need to turn things around quickly. Meanwhile, Merlins Bridge ll’s form has been consistent, and this win will give them a further boost as they push for a strong finish.

Monkton Swifts ll 4-3 Solva
In the most entertaining match of the weekend, Monkton Swifts ll came out on top in a seven-goal thriller, beating Solva 4-3. Rudy Poole scored twice, with Lucas Thomas and Marc Edwards also getting on the scoresheet for Monkton. Solva’s Sean Ellison, Josh Bland, and Lucas Price all found the net, but Solva couldn’t quite get the better of Monkton in a high-energy encounter. Monkton Swifts ll showed their resilience and attacking flair, making it a memorable win for the fans. This result puts Monkton in a strong mid-table position, while Solva will be disappointed to have lost out in such a close game.

Narberth 1-0 Johnston
Narberth secured a narrow but important 1-0 victory over Johnston, with Steffan Williams scoring the only goal of the game. This win sees Narberth climb to second place in the table, just behind Camrose. While the scoreline was tight, Narberth’s defensive discipline paid off. Johnston, on the other hand, continue to struggle and have only managed three points from five games, leaving them perilously close to the relegation zone.

With Camrose leading the charge, Narberth and Fishguard Sports will look to keep up the pressure as the season progresses. Meanwhile, Lawrenny, Broad Haven, and Johnston have plenty of work to do if they want to avoid a relegation battle.

Cwmamman United stun Tenby AFC in an unforgettable 3-3 thriller to reach the last sixteen of the West Wales Intermediate Cup

Cwmamman Utd 3 Tenby AFC 3 (Cwm win 3–2 on pens)

AN EXTRAORDINARY cup tie unfolded at Grenig Park as Cwmamman United and Tenby AFC shared a breathless 3-3 draw, before the hosts edged through 3–2 on penalties.

Tenby struck almost instantly, with Lloyd Hughes finding the net inside the opening minute. Cwm hit back on 14 minutes when Cam Isaac produced a superb finish to level the tie, but Joe Leahy restored Tenby’s lead before the break – a goal that for long spells looked like it might settle the contest.

Deep into stoppage time, however, Cwmamman refused to accept defeat. In the 100th minute, Jackson Brereton pounced to smash home an equaliser and force extra time.

The drama only intensified. Tenby were awarded a hotly disputed penalty in the 114th minute, converted confidently by Hughes. The spot-kick also saw Cwm’s Kieran Rees – who had been excellent alongside Kai O’Donnell at the heart of the defence – shown a red card.

But with virtually the last kick of the game, Cwm’s goalkeeper Kai Rees strode forward for a final desperate attack and unleashed a stunning 25-yard volley to make it 3-3, sparking wild celebrations around the ground.

Rees was far from finished. In the decisive shootout, he produced two superb saves to secure a 3–2 penalty win and send Cwmamman United into the last sixteen of the West Wales Intermediate Cup.
