What Happened In The National League On Saturday?

Barrow impressed in their 2-0 victory over title rivals Bromley on and off the pitch.

Another 3,000+ crowd joined BT Sport as goals from Dior Angus and John Rooney earned a third win in a row.

Manager Ian Evatt called it a “great win against a very good side” but knows they now face two big away matches against Boreham Wood and Solihull Moors.

They aren’t alone at the top. Harrogate won for the fifth time in a row as they eased past ten man Ebbsfleet.

They kept another clean sheet too as Connor Hall’s great volley was doubled up by veteran striker Jon Stead. Town are now up to second, just three points off the leaders and looking strong.

Yeovil dropped two more points as they struggle to match Barrow and Harrogate’s consistency.

Dave Challinor felt Hartlepool United should have won but was happy with the 2-2 draw at Huish Park.

Boreham Wood are in fine form and they put a dent in Solihull Moors’ promotion hopes.

Sorba Thomas and Kane Smith secured the points in the Midlands and Wood are looking strong for a top seven finish.

AFC Fylde dropped to third from bottom after their 3-2 defeat by Torquay. Ben Whitfield got what turned out to be the winner.

Chesterfield continue their improvement under stand-in manager John Pemberton.

They won 2-0 at Eastleigh and are now within a point of escaping the drop zone after second-half goals from Tom Denton and Jonathan Smith.

Wrexham won at home again - their 3-0 victory against Woking was aided by Luke Summerfield’s double and a goal from debutant Dan Jarvis.

“From the first minute I thought we were outstanding and continued right through the 90 minutes,” said manager Dean Keates.

Two fine goals from Jamie Allen and Michael Duckworth earned FC Halifax a 5-2 home win over Maidenhead United.

Aldershot and Chorley played out the game of the day - it finished 3-3 at the EBB.

But there were no goals as the points were shared in the games between Notts County and Dover and Stockport County and Sutton.
