Liam Sweeney added a third after good work from Timbers m.o.m Louis Watson with a good angled drive and again Sweeneys good run and shot gave Bridge a 4-0 lead after his shot came back off the post but he reacted quickest and sent the keeper the wrong way to give Bridge a 4-0 lead.

Kev Patterson and Paul Hives creating e majority of Bridges chances and the versatile Jay o Brien playing out of position, Lewis Buckley causing problems down the left side, The scoreline maybe flattered Bridge a little but the game was well handled by referee Colin Ellis.
