More late agony for Peterborough Sports, Stamford AFC pay the penalty, disappointment for Spalding United and Wisbech Town, joy for Deeping Rangers
Fresh from conceding an 88th minute equaliser against 10 men at Rushall Olympic on Saturday, Sports let in the only goal of the game at Lowestoft, again in the 88th minute to leave them winless after three matches.
The city side had chances to win the match, particularly in the first-half, before conceding to a set-piece.

Stamford were frustrated to twice be pegged back by penalties as they drew 2-2 at Ilkeston Town. Rob Morgan and Jon Challinor scored for the Daniels.
Stamford boss Graham Drury said: “I feel hard done by tonight. The first one was never a penalty and we should have had at least one penalty ourselves, but we had enough chances to win two games.”
Spalding United were knocked off the top of the table after an unfortunate 1-0 defeat at Loughborough Dynamo. They’ve been replaced at the top by Worksop Town who won 3-0 at bottom club Wisbech Town.
