TMS failed to impress against a poor Spice side who had previously conceeded 18 goals in just three games.
Threemilestone were behind within minutes when poor marking from a corner allowed an easy flickon to beat the motionless Stones keeper. Half way through the half however Jones ran on to a through ball to equalise with a well struck right foot shot past the Spice Keeper. TMS then had the majority of the play with good work from defenders Mark Woolcock, John Lewis and midfield engine Darren Woolcock but they failed to convert several half chances before the break.

The second half saw TMS use all three substitutes including player-manager Richard Luff but to little effect and a hopeful up and under from the Spice midfield set up a one-on-one with Stones keeper Dave Hill, Hill hesitated and the Spice forward took full advantage slotting home the winner.

On reflection no lack of battle from TMS but they need to improve the technical side of their game in order to turn matches their way.
