Premier Division round-up: Lancaster City impress in nine-goal thriller

Mark Fell’s side claimed an away 2-7 victory at Grantham Town, with a hat-trick from Sam Fishburn, a brace from Paul Dawson and a further goal from Liam Brockbank and an own goal from Joe Parkin.

“We were marvellous,” manager Fell told the club.

“I’ll get the negative out first and we conceded from two set plays and that’s disappointing.

“We scored seven goals and listen if everybody is honest about today, it could have been ten plus. Sam’s missed a one-on-one and we’ve hit the posts a couple of times. Our attacking play was absolutely breathtaking at times.”

He continued: “The way we shifted it and the way we moved the ball, I don’t care who you are in this league today I don’t think anybody would have lived with us from an attacking prospective.”
