Pier's day got even worse three minutes later as Neil Thomas was dismissed for a second bookable offence.

Ramos completed the scoring and wrapped up a crucial win for Rovers.

Itis Itis manager Jordan Lee said: "The boys were absolutely fantastic today, they managed the game really well, especially in the first half playing into the wind.

"Having said that, Pier never really got going and struggled to break us down. Man of the match for us was captain Jack Ramos."

Newlands equalised through Liam Salt's deflected effort after 35 minutes.

Five minutes before the interval Newlands were reduced to 10 men when Liam Mancrief was sent off for talking back to the ref.

Edgehill took full advantage of their extra man to regain the lead at 3-2 through a Joe Gallagher header and 10 minutes later Kieran Link's fine finish from just inside the 18-yard area evaded the Newlands keeper.

Gallagher's second, on 73 minutes, was a breakaway goal after a corner, the Edgehill man slamming his shot into the roof of the net.

Newlands refused to give in though, as the 10-man hosts scored on 80 minutes when Dan Freer cut inside from left and finished neatly.
