Vanarama National League South

Braintree Town 4 v 0 East Thurrock United

EAST Thurrock never recovered from a poor first half to lose 4-0 to Braintree Town on Saturday afternoon.

Goals by Billy Cook (25′) Reece Grant (38′ and 67′) and Luke Allen (39′) made it a miserable afternoon for John Coventry’s men.

The result leaves East Thurrock in 12th place, seven points off the playoffs.

This was their third league defeat in four games.

They return to action on Saturday at home against Chester in the second round of the FA Trophy.
