SWANAGE vice chairman Steve Jones heaped praise on top-of-the-table Newbury after the Berkshire side cruised to a comfortable win over struggling Swans.
Jones, whose side were without six first team players, says the former Southern League outfit are among the best sides his team have faced this season.
He said: "The facilities down there are excellent, like a five-star hotel, and they are more than capable of getting their Southern League status back."
Newbury striker Steve Watt bagged a hat-trick, including one from the penalty spot, and teenage striker Romeo scored their other goal late in the game.
Swanage Town & Herston: S James, Waterman, Roberts, J Taylor, Briley, L James, G White, Lander, Fowler, Knight, Grover. Unused substitute: T White.
