Selby Town kept up the pressure on the leaders in the Northern Counties East League premier division by going nap at Hallam.
The Robins blasted five goals without reply in a match that saw three dismissals. Hallam had Danny Broomhead sent-off just before the break then lost Danny Howard with still 20 minutes of the tie remaining.
Selby lost the influential Andy Hart deep into second half stoppage time for a second yellow-card offence but by then Town were already 5-0 up.
Hart had an eventful afternoon, scoring twice from the penalty spot either side of half-time after Hallam's teenage goalkeeper Liam Scully twice brought down Selby players.
Former Nestle Rowntree winger Steve Ward doubled Selby's advantage before the break and after Hart's second penalty made it 3-0 goals in the final five minutes from former 'Trees forwards Matty Wain and Pat Gaughan completed the rout.
Leaders Brigg remain in pole position and four points clear of the Robins after a 4-1 win at Arnold Town, but they have played two more games than Selby.
