For all of Nissan's possession in the first half they were unable to test Karl Dryden in the Bedlington goal and it was the visitors who took the lead after 40minutes when the ever dangerous Alex Benjamin scored.
Nissan continued to have loads of possession in the second half and Jon Cullen was starting to hurt the Bedlington defence with some excellent passes. It was from a through ball that Ritchy Hogson was fouled inside the box and a penalty awarded. Ben Ryan Stepped up to equalise.
This should have spurred Nissan on but instead they conceded when Ben Ryan lost possession and a quick break saw Paul Hamilton race into the box to fire past Paul Newton.
Nissan equalised shortly after when a hopeful ball into the box was met by Neil Tarrant, making his debut for Nissan, and he guided the ball home.
Within minutes of replacing the out of sorts Ben Ryan, Steven Stewart picked up the ball in his own half and powered forward before unleashing and unstoppable shot.
Man of the Match Cullen capped a fine performance with a thunderbolt of a shot to make it 4-2.

"Not one for the purest's but 3 points well earned against a well drilled Bedlington outfit.
A Massive improvement on the Bishop's match.
