It was one way traffic and the boys added a second in the 16th minute when good play by Stuart Love allowed Paul McCarthy to slot into the net from close range.
Then McCarthy grabbed a double midway through the half by latching onto a Grant Plenderleith pass
It was 4 – 0 shortly after the break and certainly the goal of the game when Man of the Match McCarthy broke wide before crossing for Hunter to time his run and bullet a header beyond the helpless keeper.
