Four-goal Ross toast of Crows

County League OneCrowborough Athletic 6 Oakwood 1OAKWOOD were hit for six at The Alderbrook on Saturday, Ross Treleaven scoring four times as the Crows turned on the style to register their biggest win of the season.Despite missing Bobby Godfrey, Danny Baker and Chris Ransome it took just two minutes for the hosts to open the scoring.

Skipper Craig Bishop was pushed up front in the re-shuffle and made an immediate impact, flicking the ball on for Treleaven, who coolly slotted past Scott Kenward.

Oakwood equalised from a debatable free-kick. Gardiner curled the ball towards goal and it somehow squirmed under goalkeeper Rob Gordon's body.

Oakwood's joy was shortlived as Treleaven again outpaced his marker to shoot past Kenward for 2-1.

On 40 minutes Dean Chamberlain was hauled down by a reckless challenge and a spotkick awarded. Crows had missed their last two penalties but Craig Bishop made no mistake this time, letting Kenward dive the wrong way before clipping the ball into the other corner.

Into the second half Treleaven made it 4-1 and completed his hat-trick on 56 minutes with another superb finish.

Crows were now in full control and Chamberlain, Bishop and Davis all went close. On 75 minutes Clarke did well down the right and crossed for Treleaven, who netted his fourth.

Crows then introduced Alan Bishop and 18-year-old Luke Jones.

Jones sent over a teasing cross and Treleaven headed wide, but on 82 minutes Phil Rhodes headed home the sixth.

Tomorrow Arundel are the visitors to The Alderbrook.
