Bray's nightmare season shows no signs of them waking up.

While the final score was a flattering unction to the struggling hosts, who didn't earn such a drastic success by play, it is a further demoralising blow to the Wicklow club.

Three-nil down at half time was bad enough. Referee Ray Matthews thought hard before awarding the penalty that gave the hosts that scoreline at the break.

Jake Keegan's second goal was clearly offside, though Assistant Referee Dermot Broughton was behind the play and failed to spot the infringement.

And though the visitors showed occasional flashes of decent play, it wasn't enough to gain them even a consolation score.
