Saturday's Blue Square North Wrap

Kettering Town extended their lead at the top of the Blue Square North table to eight points while Hinckley and Solihull Moors both recorded vital wins.

Barrow 4-1 Gainsborough

Barrow moved closer to a mid-table berth on Saturday with a comfortable win over Gainsborough Trinity at Holker Street.

The Bluebirds broke the deadlock just before the break thanks to Matt Henny and Lewis McMahon netted the equaliser for the visitors after 57 minutes.

However, it was all one-way traffic from then on as Barrow started to turn the screws on front of almost 1000 fans.

Steve McNulty coolly slotted home a 61st minute penalty and Ashley Kelly found the back of the net 15 minutes later to make it 3-1.

Henny popped up again in the 84th minute to complete his brace and help his side collect all three points.

Hinckley Utd 1-0 Burscough

The Knitters gave their supporters something to cheer about this weekend after beating promotion hopefuls Burscough at Marstons Stadium.

Richard Lavery scored the solitary goal in the 18th minute but Hinckley still find themselves in the relegation places with 17 points from 21 fixtures.

Hucknall 0-2 Kettering

Kettering strengthened their position at the top of the pile this weekend with a routine win over strugglers Hucknall Town.

Christopher Beardsley opened after 32 minutes and David Bridges netted their second just six minutes later.

The Poppies have collected 56 points from 23 fixtures and hold an eight-point lead over Southport, who are in second place.

Leigh RMI 0-1 Redditch

Redditch United recorded a much-needed win over rock-bottom Leigh RMI to give themselves some breathing room in the bottom half of the table.

The Reds had to battle hard and finally got the breakthrough they were looking for in the 85th minute thanks to substitute Damien Mark.

Nuneaton Borough v Worcester City

Abandoned after 88 minutes due to floodlight failure.

Solihull Moors 2-0 AFC Telford

The Bucks lost ground on the chasing pack on Saturday after slumping to a disappointing defeat at the hands of Solihull Moors.

Bob Faulkner's squad claimed the lead after 75 minutes thanks to Dale Davidson and Mark Hollis notched their second goal nine minutes later.

Telford were at the top of the table at one point this season but have slipped down to fourth place after this latest result.

Stalybridge 3-2 Harrogate Town

Stalybridge Celtic maintained their push for a promotion play-off spot on Saturday with a hard-fought victory over Harrogate Town at Bower Fold.
