The Bucks` 3-0 loss at Blackwell Meadows against Darlington leaves just leaders Chorley and Kidderminster Harriers with unbeaten records.

 

Jordan Nicholson`s 35th minute effort was all that separated the teams at Darlington by half-time.

 

But Telford conceded a second after 78 minutes to Harvey Saunders and Stephen Thompson made sure for the Quakers in time added on.

 

Chorley enjoyed an emphatic 5-0 win at Hurst Cross against promoted Ashton United and are now a massive seven points clear of AFC Telford in second.

 

Josh O`Keefe put the Magpies in front after 11 minutes and Adam Blakeman added a second on 31 minutes, with Marcus Carver making it 3-0 just 5 minutes later.

 

A minute into the second half, any hopes of an Ashton comeback were dashed when Louis Almond made it 4-0, and an Elliot Newby goal 5 minutes from time made it a nap hand for the visitors.

 

Kidderminster enjoyed a 3-1 Aggborough win over struggling Blyth Spartans to make it four wins and four draws from their eight games played.

 

Ashley Chambers gave the home side a 37th minute lead that Fraser Horsfall doubled just before the break.

 

Horsfall, unfortunately, scored at the wrong end to give Spartans hope on the hour-mark, but Ed Williams ensured victory with a third for Harriers 20 minutes from time.

 

Alfreton Town suffered a 1-0 Impact Arena defeat to relegated Guiseley AFC.

 

The only goal of the game was something of a gift from Alfreton`s Tom Platt, who under-hit a back pass and Rowan Liburd outpaced Martin Riley to pass into the empty net.

 

To make matters worse for the Reds, they had sub Harry Middleton sent-off 15 minutes from time.

 

Despite the backing of the majority of a 3,050 crowd at Edgeley Park, Stockport County suffered a 2-0 defeat to Boston United.

 

Ahkeem Rose gave the Pilgrims a 23rd minute lead that Nathan Arnold eventually doubled 19 minutes from time.

 

Promoted Hereford FC fell to a third defeat in four games at St James`s Park against Brackley Town.

 

The goals came one in each half as James Armson broke the deadlock after 15 minutes before in-form Lee Ndlovu made it 2-0 in the 51st minute.

 

Eliot Richards on 44 minutes and Calvin Dinsley in stoppage time both earned straight red cards - both for violent conduct.

 

Anthony Dudley and Dan Mooney bagged braces and Craig Mahon grabbed one as Chester FC bagged three points with a 5-3 success over Bradford Park Avenue in what was a hugely entertaining encounter at the Swansway Chester Stadium.

 

Ben McKenna gave Avenue a 4th minute lead that Mooney cancelled out within 2 minutes.

 

Dudley put the Blues in front after 11 minutes and Mahon added a third on 33 minutes, only for Jake Beesley to pull Avenue back into the game just before the break.

 

Oli Johnson equalised 7 minutes into the second period, but Chester came through late on to seal the victory with second goals for Mooney on 74 minutes and Dudley in time added on.

 

FC United of Manchester are still bottom but picked up a point from a 1-1 draw at Broadhurst Park against Southport in front of just under 2000.

 

Kurt Willoughby`s 35th minute opener led for the Reds until 10 minutes from time when Devarn Green pulled Port level.

 

Altrincham's search for home win continues as Curzon Ashton secured all three points at Moss Lane.

 

The Nash took a 42nd minute lead when Connor Hughes netted with a rising shot from close range at the far post.

 

The match's outcome was settled in the 57th minute when Ollie Crankshaw netted impressively from outside the area.

 

After a decent start, it`s now back-to-back defeats for Leamington as they were beaten 2-0 at the Phillips 66 Community Stadium by Spennymoor Town.

 

The goals came late though as Adam Boyes eventually broke the deadlock on 86 minutes and then Mark Anderson made sure with Moors` second in the 90th minute.
