It was a third win on the trot for Avro as they defeated visiting Kidsgrove 2-0 in the Northern Premier League Division West.
Avro started off strong with an early goal in the seventh minute from their in-form man Liam Ellis.
Substitute Anthony Warburton struck after only being on the field for several minutes early in the second-half when he doubled Avro's lead.
Warburton netted in the 61st minute after curling the ball into the corner.
The score remained at 2-0 as Avro came off the pitch as well-deserved victors at the final whistle.
The man of the match award was given to Deane Smalley for an overall solid performance at the back.
The RO are back on the road tomorrow (Tuesday) as they face Stafford Rangers at the Marston Road Stadium.
