Southport`s Jason Gilchrist Is The North's Big Winner

It was another great month in front of goal for marksman Gilchrist, and the National League North top goalscorer is the deserving winner of the player of the month award for February.

Five goals in just three matches takes the striker’s tally to 23 in the league this season, including 12 since joining Southport from FC United of Manchester.

The month began with the 23-year-old netting a second hat-trick of the campaign in victory over Gainsborough Trinity, with a half-volley from a tight angle to open the scoring the pick of the goals.

Gilchrist scored from the penalty spot as Southport recorded a second successive three-goal victory at North Ferriby United.

After falling behind against Curzon Ashton, Gilchrist’s header at the far post proved to the catalyst for an impressive comeback to secure maximum points from the month.
