Crawley produced a superb performance at Guiseley today as they cruised into the second round of the FA Cup with an emphatic 5-0 win.

The home side, riding high in third in the Blue Square Bet North and unbeaten since the opening day of the season, never threatened an upset against the premier division leaders after Matt Tubbs had settled any Crawley nerves with his 13th goal of the season.

Tubbs scored in the 15th minute after unselfish work by strike partner Craig McAllister who latched onto a long ball down the right by Danny Hall before teeing up Tubbs for a close-range finish.

Reds doubled their lead ten minutes before the break when Scott Neilson, well known to the locals after his spell at nearby Bradford, produced an emphatic finish into the roof of the net after he was freed by Tubbs inside the area.

Reds rammed home their superiority in the second half.

Hall got his first goal for the club on 56 minutes when he finished off a sweeping cross-field ball with a low drive from the edge of the box.

Substitute Richard Brodie profited from more unselfish work by McAllister to make it 4-0 on 72 and three minutes later Brodie turned provider to set up a fifth goal for another sub Sergio Torres who headed his chip into the net from close range.

There could have been others for the visitors while keeper Michel Kuipers was forced to make just one save to deny James Walshaw seven minutes from time.

By then Reds were well on their way to their first appearance in the second round since 2003.
