Stockport County bounced back from their FA Trophy heartbreak at the weekend with a narrow, hard fought 2-1 win over 21st placed Ashton United last night.
The result keeps the pressure on league leader’s Chorley, with Jim Gannon’s side now four points behind The Magpies with a crucial game in over their title rivals.
AFC Telford also responded well to crashing out of the Trophy on Saturday, by coming away from Bradford PA with a superb 2-1 victory, which has seen the Bucks rise to sixth place in the table.
Meanwhile, Brackley Town moved up to third with victory at Hereford and Guiseley gave their survival hopes a real boost by beating Curzon Ashton.
Finally, FC United and York City played out a tantalizing 3-3 draw, with the Minstermen coming back from two goals down to salvage a point in the final 20 minutes.
