THE wait for an Evo-Stik League Southern Premier Division win has stretched to 16 weeks for Bideford. There were definite signs of improvement as the Robins drew 0-0 with Chesham United today, but it wasn't quite enough to secure three points and end a run of just one win in more than six years against their opponents. Neither side had golden opportunities to win the match, but Bideford will feel they did enough in an assured first-half performance, while Chesham's inability to pick the...

Barum went into the game having picked up just one win since the turn of the year – a 2-0 success over Bitton on January 30 – and looking to put last weekend's Les Phillips Cup defeat to Keynsham Town firmly behind them. But they failed to take maximum points back to North Devon as James Mayne's goal secured a 1-1 draw this afternoon. You can keep up to date...
