Loft off as Rye crash

Rye United endured a night to forget as they were dumped out of the John O’Hara League Challenge Cup.

The Quarterboys lost 4-0 at home to Peacehaven & Telscombe and captain Shaun Loft is likely to receive a three-match ban after being sent-off.

Without the likes of Ryan Alexander, Andy Atkin and Jack Franklin, Rye started slowly and fell behind in the 10th minute when Ryan McBride controlled a ball over the top and lifted over Ollie Jones in the home goal.
