Conceding a goal in the first minute set the tone for Saints, Sam Vokes marking a rare start by heading the ball through a sea of defenders and goalkeeper Kelvin Davis for the opener.

Club captain Jody Craddock made it 2-0 with just six minutes on the clock, nodding home David Jones' corner.

The game was put to bed as early as the 19th minute, Jones - who had a hand in all three goals - the scorer from the penalty spot.

The referee pointed to the spot after David Edwards was tripped by Marek Saganowski.
