AFC Fylde boss Dave Challinor hailed the commitment of his team after they ended their five-match win less run in the National League with a stunning victory away to Leyton Orient.

Danny Rowe was the hero for the Coasters with the forward scoring a first-half free-kick and firing in a second at the start of the second period.

Jobi McAnuff pulled one back for the O’s in the 73rd minute, but Fylde defended for their lives and held on to end a difficult September on a high.

Challinor said: “We deserved that and I don’t just mean on the course of the game because should Leyton Orient have got something from it? Yes, they should have as it was a real backs to-the-wall gritty display from us.
