Wanderers could only muster a twelve man squad again as they faced Emmbrook Inn in the first match of a double-header.

Darren Wakley made a cameo appearance at left-back.  Anthony Prior moved into the middle of midfield as Ian Griffiths, already nursing an injury, started on the right.

In a fast-tempo match Wokingham found themselves 2-0 down fifteen minutes in.

The first goal from the right side of the box gave Harding little chance as the shot curled into the top corner.  The second was more disappointing as a cross from the left came in unchallenged and was touched into the net from close range. 

In the second half Wokingham went 3-0 down and suffered worse luck as it was clear that Ian Griffiths could not continue with his ankle injury.  Peter Killingworth came on for his first appearance of the season in goal and Harding took Griffiths' place on the right.

The next goal was perhaps unexpected as Wokingham pulled one back through Harding.  Paul Martin fed him well and Harding's calm finish reduced the deficit.

It was not to be the catalyst that would see Wokingham salvage anything from the game as the visitors struck five times before the end.  Killingworth could not do anything about the goals and produced a couple of good stops to help prevent double figures.

Wanderers' chance for revenge comes as quickly as next week, although it would seem unlikely that they will boast a full squad going into that game.

TEAM: Nick Harding, Jamie Ryall, Steve Martin, Matt Pegg, Darren Wakley, Ian Griffiths, Simon Reip, Anthony Prior, Phil Soane, Lewis Trusty, Paul Martin.
