Tavs Jubilations were short lived as Tetbury found themselves with a equalizer.

Again Tavs lead was short lived as Josh Blunt managed to score a volley from a Tetbury corner against his former team.


With both teams poised to find a winning goal and the scores all level on the 80th minute Tavs up and coming prodigy Harley Hudd was through on goal only to be hacked down by the Tetbury defender who was lick to escape with just a yellow card. Up stepped Louis Wilkins and Russell Chamberlain after a brief discussion the home fans fell silent as Wilkins wand struck the ball into the top right hand corner of the goal from 30 yards out.


Tavs capitalized again in added time as a well timed pass from Dean Neale split through the defenders to find Harley Hudd free in the just inside the penalty box to slot Tavs 4th of the afternoon in to the goal.
