Boston Town bowed out of the FA Vase at the first hurdle.

It was a disappointing afternoon for the Poachers, who crashed to a 3-1 defeat at Hucknall Town.

They were never at the races despite a third goal in two games by Fraser Bayliss.

Manager Chris Funnell was still without last season's two top goalscorers Harry Limb and Jordan Nuttell.

Hucknall made a fast start and were 2-0 up within the first quarter of the game. Bayliss pulled one back before the break but the hosts restored their two-goal cushion and saw the tie out

Town: Portas, Burdass, Smith, Tate, Ford (Hudson), Worthington, Bayliss, Priestley (Gibbons), Zaluzinksis, Cotton, Gurney (Maddison); unused sub: Munton
