Blues Victorious Despite Misleading Scoreline

Whitby Town won 3-2 at Atherton on Saturday in a match they dominated.

The Seasiders led inside 18 minutes when Danny Rowe craned his neck backwards to head home Lewis Hawkins' pinpoint right-wing cross.

It was two moments before half-time when Junior Mondal fired a 20-yard free-kick into the top-right corner.

The third was another set piece this time it was Priestley Griffiths slamming home from similar range on 72 minutes.

The Seasiders are back in action on Tuesday night when they host Stafford Rangers at the Towbar Express Stadium with a 7.45pm kick-off.
