re a superb low Chris Atkinson strike from what must have been 35 yards hit the bottom corner to put the Celts 2-0 up just before half time.
The second half was a quieter and scrappy affair, but Farsley slowly got on top and Ben Atkinson finished a fine move involving Donaldson and Coulson to make it 3-0.
Leban saved one on one for Farsley but The Celts could have added more to the scoreline, most notably through Wadsworth and Allan, who both hit the woodwork.
In injury time the Celts gave the ball away in midfield and the visitors notched a late consolation goal.
