Town crash to a heavy defeat at Dereham

The Woodpeckers conceded six goals for the fourth time in four months with the Magpies scoring three in each half. Town keeper Adam Wilson blocked Nick Howell's sixth minute shot shot but Oliver Willis was on hand to tap in the rebound. His fellow full back Dan Buhleman doubled the Magpies lead on 21 minutes with a speculative shot from 25 yards that sailed over the Woodbridge back four and just under the crossbar. Josh Mayhew had two goal attempts, the first hit straight at Dereham keeper John Higgs and a better second attempt saw his curling effort fly just over. Howell's dangerous cross minutes later was well cleared by a header from Woodbridge skipper Aaron Churchyard falling perfectly for Dan Beaumont to return with a volley onto the crossbar from 20 yards. A minute before half time Stuart Williams sent in a well placed corner kick to the far post which dropped to the feet of Adam Gusterson to prod over the line.

Woodbridge fell further behind five minutes into the second half, Stuart Williams heading in a corner kick. Despite the scoreline, Woodbridge were putting together some well constructed moves, Churchyard charged forward through the Dereham midfield but the ball was eventually cleared to Willis who on the counter attack sped down the right wing crossing for Adam Smith to sidefoot over Wilson. Woodbridge finally got on the scoresheet themselves five minutes from time when a slip in the Dereham defence let in Marcus Josiah to sidefoot past Higgs, but with a minute remaining of normal time Woodbridge conceded a sixth, the third in the match from a corner kick which was flicked in by substitute Kenny Reeves. In stoppage time Robbie Smythe converted a penalty kick to complete the afternoon's scoring.
