STRATFORD Town came from behind to win 2-1 at Bromsgrove Sporting and claim a third straight victory in the league.
An early goal from Charlie Pavey put the Rouslers ahead only for strikes from Dan Lafferty and Owen James to turn the game on its head at the Victoria Ground.
And the result means Stratford sit 10th in the Southern League Premier Central table, six points outside of the play-off places.
The Bards made the worst possible start as Pavey curled a stunning effort into the top corner from 25-yards out with the game just four minutes old.
However, the Bards equalised on 13 minutes when Lafferty sent a diving header into the net after Rory Brown kept out James’s initial effort.
The visitors went close again soon after when Fin Brennan’s cross eluded everyone in the box and appeared to stop on the goalline before Brown pounced on the loose ball.
Brown then kept out Dan Vann’s volley before Jake Weaver parried Luke Benbow’s free-kick from 20-yards out at the other end.
After the break, Weaver tipped Luke Softley’s close-range header onto the crossbar to keep the scores level.
And the Bards completed the turnaround on 55 minutes when James drove a shot past Brown and into the top corner after the Rouslers failed to deal with Brennan’s free-kick.
Bards substitute Henry Landers went close late on before fellow sub Max Lott embarked on a fine solo run only to find the side netting deep into injury time.
Stratford are next in action against St Ives Town on Saturday, December 13 with kick-off at 3pm at the Arden Garages Stadium.
