Buxton make it three wins in a row with victory at Radcliffe
This was the fifth win in a row against Radcliffe and 10 from the last 12, fully deserved, although the Bucks left it late to register their goals. Kirby scored after 83 minutes and De Girolamo well into stoppage time.

Understandably, John McGrath was pleased with his team's effort. He said: "I am delighted. They've been three different kinds of performance against Chester, Needham and now Radcliffe. We had to dig in against Chester, you saw our free-flowing style against Needham and tonight it was a mixture of both.
"We stuck to our task and produced two great goals. As the game wore on I felt more and more confident. We've a strong squad and the players we brought on from the bench added value in every way.
