Wands hit the Sussex Seasiders hard in the FA Cup First Qualifying Round

Cray Wanderers needed to kickstart their season after a start which had seen them score one goal and lose five times- and they did just that against Newhaven, scoring five. David Ijaha started the rout on six minutes and Tom Derry made it two after a quarter of an hour, and five minutes after the break Yahaya Bamba made it three. The visitors got one back just after the hour, but they went down to ten men with twelve minutes to go and that allowed the hosts to add two more, Nyren Clunis and Bamba once more making it five-one and sending them through.
