Aber boss calls it a day after Gap win.

GAP Connah's Quay won 2-1 at Park Avenue on Saturday in a game which proved to be Brian Coyne's last as manager of Aberystwyth Town.

Nomads striker Sam McNutt lobbed Aber keeper Stephen Cann after 33 minutes, but Luke Sherbon levelled on 65, seizing on the rebound after Geoff Kelloway's shot was parried by Terry McCormick.

Danny Forder won it for Nomads when he converted a cross from the right with nine minutes left.

Coyne, who resigned after the game, along with his assistant Jake King, said: "The people who run this club are fantastic, but unfortunately they are put under a bit of pressure, certainly financially.

"I've been here for four years now, I've had an absolutely fantastic time, but just in the last few weeks I've started to see signs that I was beginning to outstay my welcome."

Newtown boss Darren Ryan reflected on what might have been as his side were denied a famous victory at The New Saints, writes JOHN BRIDGWATER.

The Robins had led 2-1 with headed goals from Damien Daniels and Robbie James before being begged back by Scott Ruscoe's 89th minute free kick. Ryan Marriott had given TNS an early lead.

"We've now played the top three sides in a row and we've been close in all of them," said Ryan.

Caersws remain entrenched in the basement pack after slipping to a 3-0 loss to Carmarthen.

The Bluebirds rarely got into their stride in the sunshine, with first half strikes from Neil Smothers and Dyfan Pierce leaving them with an uphill task before Danny Thomas' close range effort after the break effectively wrapped up the points.

Caersws manager Mickey Evans said: "We never got going in the first half, and left ourselves with too much to do in the second."

A goal in each half from Liam McCreesh sentenced struggling Technogroup Welshpool to a 2-0 defeat at home to Port Talbot.
