KNOWLE finished pre-season with a 2-1 victory away at Paget Rangers at Castle Vale Stadium.

The Robins ended pre-season unbeaten thanks to goals from Vincent Record and Zac Parsons in a come-from-behind win.

Midland Football League Division One side Paget took the lead on 11 minutes when goalkeeper Will Owen could only parry a fierce shot as Rangers tapped in the rebound.

Knowle grew into the game as the first half wore on and matched their higher division opponents without creating a clear-cut chance.

However, the Robins improved after the interval as Record levelled the game on 57 minutes.

And the visitors completed the turnaround just past the hour mark when Parsons found the net following a corner.




Paget finished the game with 10-men after their captain received a second yellow card with five minutes left to play.

Knowle begin the 2024/25 season with a home game against AFC Coventry Rangers in the Les James Challenge Cup on Saturday, August 3 with kick-off at 3pm at the Draintech Community Ground.
