Darlington extended their winning run to 11 matches in league and FA Trophy on Saturday with a 3-0 victory at Mossley.
Terry Galbraith was recalled to the side, with Leon Scott rested, and opened the scoring midway through the half, before an own goal doubled Darlington's advantage seconds before the break.
Stephen Thompson completed victory at the start of the second half with a cracking strike, looping the ball over a defender and the goalkeeper to score his 50th goal for the club in his 100th appearance.
