Danny Sleath and Marc Newsham twice handed United the lead — but two long-range strikes from Karl Noon and a fine effort from Shelton Payne clawed the Seagulls to an unlikely victory.

The result was hard to take for the Pilgrims who had braved sub-zero temperatures to make a mammoth midweek trip to North Wales — and came so close to leaving Llanellian Road with a positive result.
