Debutant Ryan Brooke headed the winner for AFC Telford United to earn them three precious points in the fight against the drop.

The Oldham loanee, on as a substitute, stopped to nod Sean Newton's left wing cross into the net 15 minutes from time.

And despite a nervy final quarter of an hour, the home side held on for the win.

There were very few other chances of note in what was a poor encounter.

But that will matter little to Bucks boss Andy Sinton who celebrates a vital victory.
