A double strike from Carl McCluskey went a long way to ensuring that the first team won 3-1 at VCD Athletic. The result means that the Greens are now ten points clear of the relegation zone.

The home side took the lead through Ricky Sappleton in the 41st minute, but almost immediately Kezie Ibe equalised as he touched home a header from Dave Diedhiou.

McCluskey scored twice after the restart, finding the net in the 56th and 62nd minutes, and although Sappleton reduced the arrears, the Greens were able to hold on and secure all three points.
