GRANTHAM Town enjoyed a comfortable victory over bottom of the table Willenhall.The Gingerbreads went in front from the penalty spot after a Willenhall hand ball. Niall O'Rafferty stepped up and scored in off the bar and keeper.

Grantham doubled their advantage two minutes before the break. Sam Saunders squared the ball across the face of goal and his brother had an easy tap-in.

Willenhall pulled a goal back in the 64th minute. Grantham's player-manager Wayne Hallcro passed back to his keeper Richard Stainsby. Under pressure, Stainsby's clearance deflected off a player to Matthew Whitehouse who blasted in from distance.

On 71 minutes, Grantham restored their two goal buffer. A Hallcro free kick from the edge of the box was headed out by Willenhall's Whitehouse to his opposite number seven O'Rafferty who volleyed home.

O'Rafferty completed his hat trick five minutes later with another volley on the end of an Alistair Asher long ball.

Grantham Town: Stainsby, Purcico, S. Saunders, Asher, Sucharewycz, Hallcro, O'Rafferty, Robinson, Langford (Hargreaves, 72), B. Saunders (Potts, 84), Carchedi (Brooks, 84). Subs not used: Davies, Rhule.
