JIM Vince saw his Halifax side suffer a crushing defeat in their latest pre-season friendly against Alfreton.

Things didn't get any better after the break as defender Liam Smith put through his own net before Josh Law put the seal on the home side's victory with the sixth goal just before the hour.
