Redoubt .................................... 5
Wakefield Athletic ....................... 0
 
The vastly experienced Redoubt strolled to an easy victory over Division One opposition Wakefield Athletic in this Landlords Trophy tie.
 
Under-strength visitors put up a spirited performance and forced the game in the opening phase before Redoubt stepped-up the pace and took the lead in the 20th minute with Mick Carter powering a header home from a corner-kick before Colin Williamson made it 2-0 from a break-away.
 
Wakefield saw skipper Danny Barnes and Mark Tallant work overtime in the middle of the park.  The visitors had isolated chances which fell to Craig Smith and Ismail Dibagh but to no avail.  Redoubt went close through Williamson and Carl Taylor just before the break.
 
The home side were in control on the turn and scored further goals through Taylor, Dane Nic and Carter for his brace with another set-piece header.
 
The Express man-of-the match for Wakefield Athletic was shared by Ben Palmer, Danny Barnes and Mark Tallant.
