Rob Smith's side are within goal difference of escaping the drop zone after their third win against their Manchester opponents this term.

It came in a bizarre game, which saw FC United use three goalkeepers and reduced to 10 men before half-time.

The game turned in the 27th minute when United goalkeeper David Carnell went off injured.

His replacement between the sticks, winger Sam Madeley, was sent off for bringing down Connor McCarthy a minute before the break.

By then, John Cofie had put the Bucks ahead on 40 then Lucas Dawson doubled their lead from the spot.

Dave Hibbert (48) and Dwayne Samuels (79) made it 4-0 before George Thomson (82) reduced the arrears, only for sub Sean Clancy to restore their four-goal cushion two minutes from time.
