Lancers back on track by beating rivals Worthing United
Lancers, who were dumped out of the FA Vase following an 11-goal thriller three days earlier, romped to an 4-1 Southern Combination League Premier Division success over Mavericks at Culver Road.
Just as in the FA Vase defeat, Lewis Finney was at the double, while Alex Fair and Leon Dramis also struck in the win.
Lancers boss John Sharman was just pleased to seal victory.
