Connah's Quay Nomads enjoyed their third successive win in Cymru Premier by beating new boys Ammanford in Saturday's lunchtime kick off.
John Disney's side started the league campaign with a home defeat by Caernarfon, but added a success at the Recreation Ground to wins against Holywell and Trefelin.
In the solitary Saturday fixture, Callum West side-footed the visitors into the lead from the penalty spot in the 44th minute after Hussein Mehasseb was brought down by Babucar Sauane.
Harry Franklin was denied by the bar and Iwan Murray's long-range effort was acrobatically tipped over by Luke Martin as the Nomads pushed for a second.
They kept pushing and eventually sealed the win on 81 minutes when Franklin beat Martin to a long ball, ***** ed past the goalkeeper and tapped in.

Barry Town United maintained their 100% start to the Cymru Premier season with a 1-0 victory that ended Cardiff Met's perfect record.
The deadlock at Jenner Park was broken with 13 minutes remaining when Barry were awarded a penalty after a push by Fumpa Mwandwe on substitute Dan Barton.
Jack Shaw's spot-kick was parried by Met goalkeeper Arron Davies, who guessed the right way, but in the ensuing scramble Dan Smith headed in.
Barry are second on goal difference behind Llandudno, the only other side with a 100% record after Friday's 3-1 win against Holywell Town.

Newcomers Llandudno secured a third successive win to go top of the table in their third game of the season, this time condemning 10-man north Wales rivals and fellow new-boys Holywell to defeat.
Kieran Smith put the hosts ahead with Mark Winsdale levelling for the visitors just before the break.
Holywell's Danny Sullivan was sent off in the fifth-minute of first-half added time.
It still took until the 90th minute for Llandudno to go ahead, Mark Cadwallader obliging. Callum Stephens added the third as full-time beckoned.
Holywell might find consolation in rising off the bottom thanks to goal difference as they swapped places with Trefelin.
