HAY St Mary's ended the season with silverware after clinching the Aspidistra Radnorshire Cup with a 4-2 victory over holders Rhayader Town.

Played at Presteigne's Llanandras Park ground, The Saints, who have had enjoyed an excellent season in the Spar Mid Wales League First Division, netted through a brace from Jack Biggs, plus strikes from Matt James and Rob Sneddon.

Hay took an early lead with top-scorer Biggs sweeping home a cross from close range. Both sides had chances but it was Dafydd Carruthers who levelled for Rhayader midway through the half.

The Saints were back in front in the second half with Matt James scoring at the far post but the midfielder turned hero to villain as he was shown a second yellow card by referee Rob Evans.

But Rob Sneddo increased their lead, however, as he jinked past a couple of defenders to guide the ball past Luke Evans. Biggs added a fourth from Sneddon’s pass and although Mark Davies grabbed a consolation for Rhayader in stoppage time, it was Saints captain Stuart Davies who received the County Cup.

Hay then went on to land the Presteigne Otway Cup with a 5-2 success against Kington Town.

Brendan Hackett netted twice with Steve Morgan, Steve Goodwin and Biggs also on target, while Liam Jones bagged a brace for Kington.

There was further success for Hay as their reserve team had earlier in the day won the Alfred Sparey Cup after defeating Mid Wales League (South) rivals, Newcastle 3-2.

Kyle Harding grabbed Hay's winner to add to earlier goals from Richard Lynes and Craig Forsyth.
