An eventful afternoon in Northumberland saw Whitby Town win by the odd goal in seven.
The Blues went ahead with Layton Watts netting twice early on as the Blues looked to be cruising in the first half.
Then when Lewis Hawkins made it 3-0 before half-time, Gary Liddle's men were firmly in the driving seat.
However it wasn't all plain sailing:
Commentary from Paul Connolly and Will Berwick on This Is The Coast Extra.
The NPL Premier's bottom club, Blyth Spartans, pulled one back early in the second half from a corner.
Nathan Thomas looked to have surely won it for Town at 4-1, but a drive through a row of players made it 4-2.
Spartans had one cleared off the goal-line before Adam Gell was sent off for a second bookable offence and Blyth, led by former Blues boss Nathan Haslam, made it 4-3.
Hawkins was also dismissed after two yellows but Whitby clung on for the win.
Liddle spoke to Whitby Town TV at full-time:
