Tom Batchelor returned to the starting line up following his suspension, Jordan Hempenstall also started after being on the bench on Tuesday night.

The Gingerbreads took the lead after 12 minutes when Danny Meadows saw his shot loop into the back of the net.

Stefan Galinski went off injured just before the 20 minute mark, meaning Rhys Lewis dropped back into defence again and Michael Hollingsworth came off the bench.

Whitby levelled the match on 25 minutes through Junior Mondal's curling effort.

Lee Shaw almost put The Gingerbreads ahead just before half time but his header came off the bar.

The Gingerbreads took the lead though on 50 minutes. Sam Osborne tricked down the left and pulled the ball back to Jordan Hempenstall in the centre of the box and he fired home.

The away side pushed on from there having plenty of chances, and with 17 minutes to go it was 3-1. Sam Osborne was played through on goal and slotted home.

4-1 came on 84 minutes, The Gingerbreads again got down the left and found Jordan Hempenstall who only had to tap the ball in.

And with the match in injury time, late substitute Andrew Wright made it 5-1 when he struck from the edge of the 6 yard box.

It's another quick turn around for The Gingerbreads, as on Saturday we host league leaders Altrincham. A point for them will clinch them the title
