Despite going ahead early through Dwayne Samuels, the Bucks were instantly pegged back and survived a second-half onslaught, with Curtis Tilt dismissed late one.

The visitors were quicker out of the traps in Lincolnshire and rewarded with barely four minutes on the clock through Samuels' opener.

A typical long throw from Tom Tonks paid dividends as the hosts were unable to clear and the ball fell to the telford full-back who hammed a half-volley into the top corner from the penalty spot.

Celebrations were anything but muted as the whole squad headed to Rob Smith and Larry Chambers in euphoric celebration.
