The West Yorkshire side, who sit 16 places above 19th-placed Rangers in the Evo-Stik Northern Premier League, opened the scoring through Paul Walker after 24 minutes.

Their lead was doubled through Luke Parkin 15 minutes later before Lewis Turner struck the third moments before half-time.

Any hopes of a second-half comeback were extinguished three minutes after the restart when Dave Syers made it four. Farsley completed the rout when Adam Clayton hit the fifth in the 87th minute.
