AFC Fylde moved off the bottom of the National League with victory over Rochdale in a match marred by a serious injury to visiting winger Jesurun Uchegbulam.
The match was delayed for around 20 minutes as Uchegbulam, having collided with an advertising hoarding, received treatment before being carried off to a standing ovation.
Danny Ormerod grabbed a quickfire double either side of the hour mark to give the hosts swift revenge for their 2-0 defeat at Rochdale on 26 December.
The result ended AFC Fylde's run of seven league games without a win and was enough to nudge them two points clear of Kidderminster, who replace the Coasters at the foot of the table.
