Crewe 0-3 Stockport

Three second half goals ruined Dario Gradi's Crewe return as Stockport cruised to victory at Gresty Road.

Gradi was back in charge after Steve Holland's dismissal, but he failed to reverse their fortunes as Crewe remain rooted to the bottom of League One.

Craig Davies gave the visitors the lead three minutes after half-time as he tucked the ball under Steve Collis.

Anthony Pilkington's 20-yard strike doubled Stockport's lead before Peter Thompson headed home in stoppage time.
