YM target cup final after easing past East Grinstead

Horsham YMCA booked their place in the second round of the Sussex Senior Cup and extended their unbeaten run to six games, as they comfortably overcame East Grinstead Town 5-1 at Gorings Mead on Tuesday evening, Tom Norris writes.

Three goals in eight first half minutes from Kevin Burgess, John Symons and Ashley Dugdale provided YM with an unassailable lead at the midway point in the first half, as a dejected Wasps side offered very little in the way of a response.

Grinstead defender Guy Harding did scrappily reduce the deficit just before the break, but that ultimately served as a mere consolation, as an even more one sided second period saw further strikes from Nick Sullivan and Lee Thomas complete the rout.
