Coronation Park again proved Chorley's happy hunting ground and the Magpies can now boast seven wins from seven visits.

Chorley went ahead on 35 minutes when Peter Wright poked the ball home from close range.

Eastwood raised their game after the break and Chorley needed the cushion of a second goal which arrived in style on 58 minutes when Wright's cutback was expertly volleyed in by Chris McGrath.

It was no surprise when Gary Martindale added a third on 75 minutes from short range, after John Bluck's cross caught home defenders flat-footed. Further goals might easily have followed as rampant Chorley carved out several inviting chances but it was left to the impressive Bluck to wrap things up with a flourish in the 90th minute, cooly steering the ball into the unguarded net from 25 yards after keeper Danny Bryant had rushed out to boot clear.
