ST PAUL’S hopes of a twelfth Upton Park Trophy success disappeared following an under par performance against Guernsey’s Belgrave Wanderers in Guernsey on Saturday afternoon.

Rihoy nodded home a corner kick on a far post in the 45th minute and Ramsden doubled Bels’ advantage in the 61st minute after man-of-the-match Matt Drillott’s shot cannoned back into play off a post.
