Steve Guinan hit a first half hat-trick as Hereford outclassed Oldham.

Dean Windass hit the post for Oldham before Guinan opened the scoring from Matt Done's long throw-in.

Lionel Ainsworth set up Guinan to score his second goal from close range then made it 3-0 himself, following up after Guinan's header had hit the bar.

Guinan completed his treble with a shot on the turn and Ainsworth rounded off the scoring midway through the second half after dispossessing Kelvin Lomax.
