Kendal Town kept their play-off push hopes alive with an important 3-0 home win over Glossop North End.
They now go to Charnock Richard who are two places and 11 points behind them, but they do have six games in hand as they have most fixtures to make up.
James Bailey had headed them in front on 24 minutes when he got on the end of a corner from Ryan Winder at the back post.
It was another header, this time from Matt Dudley after a great cross by Ben Thomas, which doubled the Kendal lead on 36 minutes.
The points were effectively wrapped-up on 64 minutes when Winder went through, one-on-one with the Glossop keeper and although initially denied, slotted home the rebound.
Manager Jimmy Marshall said: “We know that if we can win our last five games then we have a chance of the play-offs. If we don’t do that then we won’t.
“Well that’s the first one out of the way and I thought we thoroughly deserved it, getting the ball down, working hard and taking our chances.
“We moved the team around a bit because it’s hard in non-league playing twice in 48 hours and we were very conscious of having this game on Monday.
“All we can do is keep the belief and keep on winning, and then we will see where we are.”
Seventh in the table, Kendal are only a point outside the play-offs but they have played more games than four of the sides ahead of them.
