In front of our lowest ever Non League league gate of just 75 Southport came away with a 2-0 win on a bitterly cold night in Buxton.

Goals from Dior Angus in the 17th minute and David Morgan on 84 minutes sealed the win.

Angus capitalised on a slip from the Farsley defender and raced through on goal one on one and slipped the ball past the keeper and into the net

Whilst not at our best against a spirited Farsley side, beset with problems, it is the three points that are on the board that count.

Chances were at a premium throughout the game but the lively Arthur Gnahoua was causing the Farsley back line all sorts of problems but the lack of finish was in evidence again.

At 1-0 after 80 minutes the home side were still in it and it was getting a bit nervy but Morgan settled the nerves with a shot from 8 yards after Connor Evans had his shot blocked. The alert official saw that the ball had clearly crossed the line.

We somehow managed to pick up 5 yellow cards in a game that was far from dirty,
