1874 Northwich 2 Silsden 1
THE Cobbydalers head into their tough Easter programme on the back of another agonising Premier Division defeat tonight.
James Gill's side looked as if they had salvaged a point when their former Bradford City striker Danny Forrest scored in the 82nd minute to cancel out Neil Chappell's 43rd minute volley for the home side.
But Northwich had other ideas and their striker Matthew Beadle popped up with his 22nd goal of the season three minutes from time to secure the points.
It's a result that leaves Silsden four points from safety as they prepare to host table-topping Runcorn Linnets on Saturday before visiting high-flying Colne on Monday.
The only crumb of comfort for Silsden on the night was the news that the two teams beneath them were both beaten.
AFC Blackpool lost 3-1 at home to Atherton Collieries while Alsager Town – 1-0 winners at Silsden on Saturday – were thrashed 5-0 at Colne.
