However, Fylde were grateful for a Telford penalty miss before Sampson sealed the points with his first goal for the club. The game began in scrappy fashion, with both sides trying to build from the back but struggling to maintain possession. Fylde now had Telford on the back foot, their off-the-ball movement and free-flowing attacks proving too much for the Bucks defence. AFC Telford were much-improved after half-time, carving out numerous opportunities as Bond and Dom McHale saw shots sail wide of Chris Neal’s goal. Fylde: Neal, Burke, Conland, Pond, Whitmore, Tollitt, Philliskirk, Perkins, Shaw (Osborne 89), Hulme (Haughton 76), Sampson; Subs not used: Sanders, Nolan, Willoughby.
