Only four matches survived the weather in Blue Square North on Saturday, and in one of them Fleetwood Town moved to within three points of leaders Southport with victory over Ilkeston Town.
In a tight affair at Highbury, which had been protected from the elements by a hot air balloon, Tom Cahill`s 56th minute effort eventually proved enough for Micky Mellon`s side.
Eastwood Town missed the opportunity to go into third spot after going down at Northwich Victoria.
The Badgers were ahead after 20 minutes through David Brown only for Wayne Riley to equalise 4 minutes later.
Brian Dutton then scored his first goal since making his move from Harrogate Town permanent to put Vics in front after 38 minutes and Riley`s second on 52 minutes made it 3-1, with Mat Bailey virtually making the result certain with number four 4 minutes later.
Eastwood made Vics sweat, however, when they pulled two back through Lindon Meikle on 62 minutes and Danny Holland 6 minutes from time.
Gainsborough Trinity`s relegation worries increased with defeat at home by Stafford Rangers.
Levi Reid put Rangers in front 4 minutes before half time but it took until 20 minutes from time when Darren Alexander added a second that the visitors could relax a little.
Alexander scored again 2 minutes later just to make sure, with Luke Beckett`s stoppage time penalty being all Trinity could muster in reply.
Vauxhall Motors stay bottom after going down to a 3-2 defeat at Croft Park against Blyth Spartans, who are now in the top half of the table.
Paul Brayson gave Blyth an 18th minute lead that lasted only 2 minutes when Lee Furlong equalised.
A draw looked on the cards until Robbie Dale restored the home side`s lead with 4 minutes remaining.
Two goals then came in stoppage time – Brayson`s second for Spartans and Carl Noon for Motors.
