Thetford Town were on the wrong end of a 3-0 scoreline away at Gorleston on Saturday with the Greens looking very impressive.
Thetford started well and could have gone in front early on but Matt Dixon's effort went wide.
Gorleston took the lead on 18 minutes when quick passing saw them get behind the Town defence for Mitch Forbes to run on and score.
Town tried to reply but poor passing saw Gorleston have more of the ball.

The second-half saw Gorleston with some early chances and with Town unable to string any sort of passing together it was no surprise when Gorleston increased their lead on 78 minutes.
Thetford never managed to clear the danger and Chris Sandford benefitted before the Greens made sure of victory late on with a third.
