Paul Oldroyd fired the hosts in front and striker Jamie Tyler made it 2-0 at the interval to villagers, the Ayton defence keeping the pacey Chris Weetman at bay.

Milburn gave the hosts a three-goal lead early in the second half with a stunning 20-yard shot into the top corner of the net, and although player-boss Ray Thorpe reduced the arrears midway through the half, two cracking goals in quick succession from the tireless Milburn completed his hat-trick and made sure of the first win of the season for Ayton.
