Guiseley hot on heels of Park Avenue

Guiseley 2, Burscough 1

Guiseley kept their automatic promotion hopes very much alive with a narrow victory at Nethermoor.

The visitors had a troublesome journey from their east Lancashire home but the delayed start did not affect the home side.

A first-half double from Jamie Walshaw put the Lions firmly in the driving seat.

Walshaw netted from close range in the 18th minute and scored with another left-foot shot six minutes before the break.

Guiseley were less of a force in the second period but there was little chance of Burscough sharing the spoils, even after Marc Dermott reduced the arrears just before the hour.
