Its a warm and sunny afternoon at Prescot and the notoriously bumpy and uneven playing surface doesn't look too bad. One team change from Wednesday's victory at North Ferriby with Whitehouse in for Pugh. So the full team is Skiba, Lloyd, Merris, Ellis, Cotterill, Crossley, Burton, Crooks, Whitehouse, Brown and Muller. Subs are Morgan, Bader, Tiani, Camfield and Hanson.

PS for all you Skiba fans - he's in all green today

First 15 mins - pretty even, we haven't got our passing game going yet. No decent chances created and Prescot not carrying much threat.

34 mins GOAL - Brown fouled near the corner flag. Crooks took the resulting free kick from the right and Burton headed in off the post. We are playing much better now.

38 mins GOAL - nicely worked close passing move down the right ending with Brown darting into the box and crossing from the touchline for unmarked Dave Merris to tap in at the far post - game effectively over.

Half time - Prescot Cables 0 Guiseley 3 In truth, we haven't played that well , the passing has been sloppy at times and too many players have not been in the game enough. That said, the pitch IS bad and makes life difficult for passing sides. Once we scored, Prescot quickly lost heart and we started to play with much more confidence. We should score more in the second half

77 mins GOAL - now its 3-6, a penalty following a foul on the advancing striker by Skiba, for which he was lucky to escape a sending off. We have been terrible since Muller and Crossley went off.
