Tom Bloxham edged the Seasiders in front after 13 minutes to ease the mood at Bloomfield Road following a tough few weeks.
A brace from Ashley Fletcher and one from Scott Banks followed, with Luke Armstrong’s second half goal proving to be nothing more than a consolation for the National League visitors.
While there was a big away following from the Cumbrians, those in the home played their part in getting behind Ian Evatt’s side on a cold and wet night on the Fylde Coast.
