The Veras were without their talismanic player/manager and leading scorer, Johnny Erdman, after he picked up a shoulder injury after a cynical challenge in last week’s frenetic cup tie with AC Camden. Nevertheless they made light work of a disorganised Music Choice eleven.

A Yeboah-esque volley from Tommy Fyans made it 1-0 with 20 minutes gone before Dave Romain, back from penning Eurozone debt crisis legislation, tip-toed his way through the Music Choice defence only to be scythed down by an appalling tackle.

Oli Jones converted the resulting penalty before grabbing a brace with a stooping header from a superb cross from Dave Krikler with 15 minutes to go in the second half.

It was nothing short of a masterclass from the Veras who dominated for virtually the full 90 minutes.
