Déjà Vu for Town at Haverhill

13 months ago Woodbridge visited Hamlet Croft with both teams looking for their first win in five matches and were beaten 3-1 by the home side and to cap a miserable day Liam Scopes was dismissed in the 88th minute.

On Saturday Woodbridge visited Hamlet Croft with Haverhill looking for their first win in five matches and Woodbridge in nine and were beaten 3-1 by the home side and to cap a miserable day Liam Scopes was dismissed in the 88th minute.

Rovers took the lead two minutes from the end of a dire first half when a cross from Marc Abbott took a deflection over Town keeper Rhodes straight into the net. Things got worse for Woodbridge midway through the second half when Danny Shipton's innocuous free kick slipped through the hands of Rhodes to double the Rovers lead. Efforts to restore parity from Seb Brimstead and Ben Seaman were foiled by crossbar and post before Shaun Banham put the result beyond doubt with four minutes remaining. Town substitute Josh Mayhew completed the scoring with a consolation goal for Woodbridge a minute later. Referee Darren Flanagan ended a busy afternoon after distributing six cautions by dismissing Scopes from the field after his assistant spotted the town midfielder aim a kick at an opponent.

Woodbridge Team: Lewis Rhodes, Sebastian Brimstead, Grant Monaghan, Ben Miller, Chris Pratt, Aaron Churchyard, Marcus Josiah (Ben Goddard 89), Liam Scopes, Glenn Snell (Joshua Mayhew 63), Thomas Trevivian, Ben Seaman.
