It had been a long time coming, but Witney’s coaching team felt the signs had been there before their thrashing of Wimborne.

John Campbell said: “For the last few games, we have played well, but just not converted it into points.

“They have worked so hard it training. It was just a matter of time before it came off.

“When we got our quick recycling game going, we looked good.

“We like the ground dry and firm as it was today. The days where we wanted a wet pitch are gone.”

Phil Harper added: “We have seen the performances getting better. It was great to play like that.”
