IF Poole Town continue at the rate of knots they have begun their Hampshire Premier League programme this season, it wouldn't be beyond the realms of possibilities that the Dolphins could hit an unbelievable 200 goal mark.

Paul Morrell's side have now struck an incredible 17 goals in their opening three fixtures, following another massacre of the opposition, this time in a 6-1 win at local rivals Ringwood Town at Long Lane.

And seven of those 17 goals have come from prolific hit-man Karim Banssouada, who netted four times at Long Lane.

Banssouada is perhaps making the most of his appearances in a Dolphins shirt right now though, as he makes his last outing for Poole Town on Saturday before starting a four month suspension.

Morrell admitted that he will miss his on fire front man, but insists thesquad is big enough to cope.

Morrell said, "I'd be a fool to say that we won't miss him, but hopefully with the players we've signed for the club and the players we had here already we're still going to create plenty of chances.

"Banssouada netted twice before veteran Jason Lovell fired home an excellent free-kick to pull a goal back for Ringwood.

Banssouada then completed his hat-trick before the half-time break, and just six minutes the other side of the interval added his and Poole's fourth.

Darren Reeks and Nick Miles finished off the rout for Dolphins.

Poole: Potter, Gater, Woodward, Kemp, P Manning, Woods, L Manning (Muir 69), Reeks (Morris 79), Cornick (Miles 61), Banssouada, White. Unused subs: Burt, Purkiss.
