PORTHMADOG produced a ruthless display to secure an emphatic 6-0 home rout over in-form Denbigh Town.

A stunning end to the game put the exclamation on proceedings for Craig Papirnyk in what turned out to be their biggest win of the season, and Port will be aiming to take this form into Saturday’s tricky Huws Gray Cup quarter-final clash against in-form Conwy Borough (2.30pm).

The home side wasted no time in making an impact on proceedings and went ahead on 15 minutes when Rob Evans took advantage of some hesitant defending to fire past Craig Vernon.

Former St Asaph City hotshot Jake Walker almost levelled matters soon after when his effort sailed narrowly over after good work from Sam Jones and Rhys Llwyd, and they were dealt another blow a minute before the break when Shaun Cavanagh intercepted an wayward pass before teeing up Dale Davis for a simple finish to double their advantage.

Jones forced Paul Pritchard into action in first half stoppage time with what turned out to be Town’s best chance of the contest, with Llwyd despatching a shot over shortly after the interval.

Port all-but sealed the points on 62 minutes when Davies notched his second of the afternoon when he headed home a Sion Edwards delivery, and Cavanagh rounded off a sensational individual display with a goal of his own with 82 gone.

This was swiftly followed by a fifth which arrived courtesy of a Rob Edwards effort a minute from time, and Town’s misery was compounded immediately following the restart when Ryan Taylor completed the rout.
