Kidderminster Harriers moved up to second after a 3-1 win at  Bradford PA. Harriers were 3-0 up at the break thanks to Andrew Brown, Arthur Gnahoua and Ryan Croasdale.  John Cofie  pulled one back in the final quarter of an hour for Bradford, but it proved to just to consolation. Kidderminster moved second on goal difference due to third place Chorley not having a game.
