Wanderers rounded off their pre-season with a convincing victory against fourth division GMAC RFC FC. 

The Blues didn’t take long to create chances in the game, as Anthony Prior, Darren Wakley and Chris Orbell all had efforts saved, whilst Dan van der Laan O’Donnell clipped the bar with a header.

Wanderers took the lead after twelve minutes, following great work on the right from Ian Griffiths.  Griffiths looked to have taken the ball too far, but cut an excellent cross back for Tom Soane to tap in at the far post.

The lead was extended minutes later as Paul Martin beat his man before cutting back, for Griffiths to prod the ball home from close range.

Wokingham dominated the rest of the half, and further chances fell to Soane and Martin.  Wakley and Falcus worked hard in the midfield, whilst Mark Timms was only called into action once, as he claimed a through-ball.

On the stroke of half-time Wanderers made it 3-0, as van der Laan O’Donnell headed home Prior’s in-swinging corner.

Tom Mansfield was introduced at half-time in place of Falcus, as Jamie Ryall reverted back to centre-midfield.  He and Wakley helped to control the play in a one-sided second half.

Further chances followed for the Blues, with Tom Soane smashing a great effort into the side-netting.

With twenty minutes remaining, Mansfield moved into midfield and was soon celebrating a goal.  Martin’s excellent work on the right ended with a cross over the goalkeeper for “Chunk” to head into the empty net.

Martin’s hard work was rewarded again five minutes later, as Orbell set him up to stroke the ball home.

So with the start of the season is just one week away, Wanderers have shown quality in all three of their friendlies and will hope that the campaign can end with another promotion.

SQUAD: Mark Timms, Chris Hillsdon, Clint Falcus, Dan van der Laan O'Donnell, Jamie Ryall, Anthony Prior, Paul Martin, Ian Griffiths, Chris Orbell, Lewis Trusty, Tom Soane, Darren Wakley, Tom Mansfield.
