And after 22 minutes it was Town striker Caroline Lambert who made the difference with a spectacular 25-yard effort.
Five minutes later, Lambert's strike partner Emma Chaffey doubled the lead with a fine left-foot shot.

After the break Royston keeper Amy Walker made two good saves.
Royston manager Kevin Foulger said: "If we'd have played like this all season we wouldn't have been relegation candidates. They were brilliant today, it was a real team performance against good opponents.
