Robbins hits treble with Porter and Ainley also off the mark in pre-season
Alex midfielder Joe Robbins hit a pre-season hat-trick as another Crewe Alexandra XI hit five goals at Ashton United to go with the six we scored at Witton Albion on the same night.
Robbins added three more goals to the one he scored at Nantwich on Sunday, when playing as a right-back in the second half at the Weaver Stadium.
Assistant manager, Kenny Lunt, took the other side tonight, against an Ashton squad that included our former defender Nicky Hunt and it proved to be another match fitness exercise as a number of players managed to get 90 minutes of game time.
Young Robbins evidently made an impression with his treble of goals with striker Chris Porter and attacking midfielder, Callum Ainley, also on target on what was another comfortable run-out in terms of a contest.
