Two hat-tricks as Loxwood put in '˜professional job' in RUR Cup at Midhurst
Alfie Gritt was also on target as the Magpies picked apart division-lower Midhurst & Easebourne in a 7-0 drubbing at The Rotherfield.
Moore had put Loxwood 3-0 up at the break, the third coming on the stroke of half-time from the penalty spot.

Magpies boss Dave Cocoracchio said: “We had a very poor result on Saturday (in the FA Vase) and we hoped the boys could respond in the right way. We wanted to make sure we showed our opponents respect, but go out and do a really professional job.
“We wanted to go back to basics and do what we do well, we did that and put in a really good performance in really awful conditions.
“We played some super football with tempo and moved the ball quickly. Out wide we got into some really good positions and in the final third created untold opportunities.

Loxwood: Milborrow, Neathey, French, Colbran (Pritchard 70), Warren, Bachelor, Swaine, Todd, Wood, Moore (Lloyd 74), Andrade (Gritt 57).
