Nelson were given six of the best by top of the table Newcastle Town who maintained their 100 per cent record in the Vodkat Premier Division this season.

The Blues went behind on 36 minutes when Chris Boast headed home and the hosts doubled their lead through Jonathan Sheldon.

Jordan Johnson made it 3-0 from the spot and, in the last 10 minutes, Newcastle added three more - two long range efforts from Boast and Alan Nagington before Matthew Platt finished with a crisp volley.
