Athenian League Cup
Slough Town were not slow to show they had not allowed the disappointment of Wembley to upset them, slamming five goals into the Wembley net in an Athenian League match at the Stadium on Monday evening. Goal average could become the deciding factor in the championship when the final reckoning is made in three weeks’ time.
There was a good crowd to welcome the Rebels and from the start they were in complete control and bottom of the table Wembley were never in the hunt.
After 16 minutes Reid put Slough ahead and O'Sullivan made it a couple in the 29th minute. This was the score life at half time but the second half was only six minutes old when Gaine beat the visitors goalkeeper with a headed goal.
Gaine made it four in the 76th minute and then just before the final whistle Slough were awarded a penalty and Day the club's star spot kick taker gave the goalkeeper no chance with a well-directed shot.
Slough certainly turned in a polished display which even allowing for the weakness of the opposition augurs well for their key games immediately ahead.
