Poole Town suffer home loss to Taunton
Poole Town have suffered a five nil home defeat to Taunton Town.
Josh Staunton brought Charlie Davis and Corey Jordan back into the starting 11, and the opening stages gave both sides chances to build attacks before Scott Robinson headed Taunton in front from a ball into the area.
Adam Parkes then made key saves, while Ryan Campbell cleared from the line, but Robinson added a second in the 37th minute after Taunton worked an opening down the left.
Poole began the second half with more threat after Selim Saied came on, although Jay Murray scored soon after to make it three nil and leave the visitors in control again.
Robinson completed his hat trick in the 74th minute, and Taunton added a fifth in the 80th minute before Saied and Harvey Slade went close as Poole searched for a consolation.
The result gave Taunton all three points in Dorset, and Poole now have a quick chance to respond when they face local rivals Wimborne Town on Tuesday night in their next game.
