Egham Town 0,
Evesham Utd 4
EVESHAM won't pick up three more easy points than they brought back from Surrey last Saturday.
Facing a home side that had lost all six Division One West matches and sporting ten new faces in their 16-man squad.
The Robins made it ten points out of 12 on the road this term as they moved up to third in the table after two goals in each half easily overcame the tepid challenge of the hapless basement hosts.
Common Road's most recent recruit Ravi Sangha completed the rout a minute from time was the substitute showed just why he had grabbed a bagful of goals with Tipton Town last season with a classy lob that capped a dominant United performance.
After boss Dave Busst had rounded on his side after failing to make the most of their chances in three previous home games, the players at least ensured the points were all but wrapped up by the break after which they again contrived to waste a hatful of opportunities.
Jermaine Clarke should have notched up a hat-trick but failed to beat overworked Egham keeper Adam Lowe when sent clear having given the Robins a three-goal lead ten minutes into the second period.
Andy Smith made a first start at the expense of the injured Stuart Hamilton, while a fit again Steve Duncan was a welcome addition to Busst's starting line-up.
It was surprising then that it took the visitors half-an-hour to break the deadlock but, after Danny Williams had knocked in a loose ball after Lowe and Clarke had collided, there was only going to be one winner.
Four minutes later the lead was doubled when Duncan sent Clarke clear and he slipped the ball between the onrushing Lowe's legs.
The constant barrage towards the home goal continued in the second period and, when Duncan nodded down a Gavin O'Toole free-kick, Clarke was on hand to make it 3-0 from close-range with 55 minutes on the watch.
Sangha replaced a limping Williams ten minutes later and he had to wait until Clarke's chances and numerous others had gone to waste before maintaining his prolific scoring record after more good work from his new strike partner.
