BACUP recorded their best win of the season after thumping Silsden 5-0 at West View last night.

Ian Barker scored a superb hat-trick with substitutes Tony Carroll and Todd Hayes both getting in on the act.

Manager Brent Peters said: "That is our biggest win of the season and probably our best performance for about three years."

The victory was slightly soured by injuries to Simon Heaton and Simon Myerscough who are now both doubtful for tomorrow's trip to St Helens Town.
