Three of the newly-promoted sides won on Saturday afternoon, with Barrow coming from behind to defeat Dover Athletic 2-1, Boreham Wood finishing strongly to beat Halifax Town and Bromley recording an impressive win over Wrexham.

However, fellow newcomers Guiseley succumbed to a narrow loss away at Welling United, who secured victory thanks to a goal from Sahr Kabba.
