Sean Clancy opened the scoring for AFC Telford United against Scarborough
Scarborough Athletic’s challenging week ended with a crushing 6-0 defeat at AFC Telford United in the FA Trophy Third Qualifying Round tie.
Scarborough were huge underdogs against their Skrill North opponents, but the huge scoreline will have hurt the Seadogs, who lose assistant manager Darren France and coach John Reed this week.
An early Sean Clancy penalty and a Michael Grogan header gave Telford a comfortable half-time lead. Grogan then scored again after the break before Adam Farrell, Simon Grand and Tony Gray increased the score.
Scarborough also took another blow as Andy Milne was sent off for his foul on Gray in the last minute which led to a second penalty from which the latter scored from. Milne will serve a one-match suspension in two weeks’ time.
