WITH the first team game at Bellholme cancelled due to a waterlogged pitch, all eyes turned to the second team.
It was a difficult task as they faced a team on top of the table and undefeated.
That record was left in tatters as Borough struck three times in eight minutes midway through the first-half.
Despite conceding two sloppy goals, Borough hit back again to win rather comfortably.
However, it was a far from painless victory, especially for Danny Aspinall.
He needed stitches in his head and was carried from the field after being kicked in a penalty area melee.
Aspinall was one of the Todmorden goalscorer along with Lee Baxter, Danny Shackleton and a brace from Marvin Bonney.
But the pick of the goals was a cracking header from Matthew Saxon which rounded off a slick move down the right in style.
