Albion enjoyed a 3-0 friendly win over Worthing at rain-lashed Woodside Road this evening.

Adam El-Abd and Kazenga LuaLua fired home in the first half.

Lively young sub George Barker added the third on 77 minutes.

Albion rested several star players including Vicente , Tomasz Kuszczak and Wayne Bridge.

But they still sent out a strong line-up which dominated proceedings and gave Peter Brezovan a quiet, if wet, night in goal.

The best result for Worthing was a gate of 1,754 and a busy night at the bars as fans sought refuge from the bad weather.
