Southport 1 Rushden & Diamonds 2

The day started with some Guantanamo Bay style torture courtesy of the PA playing an endless version of You Spin Me Round (Like a Record) by Dead or Alive. Strikerless Southport played some good passing football in midfield but had nothing upfront. Southport had more shots than R&D until the deadlock was broken. The first goal came while Southport were frozen, rooted to the ground. The second from a free kick. Southport didnt look like they could get back into the game but when Baker was fouled in the box Southport got and scored a penalty.

Southport desperately need at least one striker.Midfield players cannot be relied upon to get all the goals or to play upfront in the strikers role. Jackson works hard but where are his goals?

Man of the Match: Chris Lane
