AFC Telford 3 Corby 0 - Report and pictures

The Bucks recovered from a sluggish start to turn their one goal first half advantage into a rout following some stern words from boss Rob Smith.

Josh Wilson slotted the first home with a neat header and then Dawson doubled Telford's lead from the spot when the lively McCarthy was brought down in the box 10 minutes into the second-half.

Substitute Izak Reid, who had been on the field for less than a minute, gave the Bucks breathing space latching on to a cross with 15 minutes of the match remaining.

The win was Telford's fourth on the bounce and means they are now four points off the relegation places and sit nine above Hednesford, who let in two late goals, and Corby, who remain bottom.

Smith bemoaned his side's lacklustre start to the game and even called his players lazy during the cagey opening 45 minutes.

But his side rallied behind the huge presence of centre back pairing Mike Grogan and Curtis Tilt ,who did not give an inch and made sure any Corby half Corby were snuffed out quickly.

Striker John Cofie went off in the first half as a precaution a picking up a hamstring strain ahead of next weekend's fixture at home to Tamworth, who sit in sixth place.
