Wolves clawed their way back with Davis grabbing a second to leave the teams deadlocked at the break.

Wolvess regained the lead three minutes into the second half through Omeek Smith before Russell again brought the teams level with his second of the match in the 58th minute.

Paget were again forced to chase the game after Davis completed his treble in the 61st minute to put Wolves ahead 4-3 and they proved up to the task as Russell equalised in the 88th minute to complete his hat-trick before Dion Stovell struck the winner a minute later to finally see off a stubborn Wolves.

Despite losing, Wolves retained top spot the standings on goal difference over second-placed BAA while Paget jumped from sixth to fourth.
