Dartford moved joint-top of Blue Square Bet South after coming from behind to beat Staines Town at Princes Park on Tuesday night.

Charlie Sheringham saw an early goal disallowed for the hosts for a questionable offside before Tom Champion conceded a penalty which Adam Everitt converted to give Staines the lead on 18 minutes.

Andy Young made a smart save to keep the deficit to one before Lee Noble was hacked down in the box, only for Sheringham to sky the resultant spot-kick - his third miss from his last five penalties.

After the break a Richard Graham header looped off the bar before Ryan Hayes was fouled in the box and stepped-up himself to convert the penalty for 1-1 on 53 minutes.

Young tipped a shot onto the bar as Staines fought back but Elliot Bradbrook saw a header cleared off the line from a Graham corner at the other end while Adam Green fired inches over from 25 yards and Hayes saw two free-kicks stopped by Town keeper Louis Wells.

As Darts pressed for a winner a Hayes corner was headed in by Tom Champion with 17 minutes remaining and Young kept Darts infront with a good block while sub Jack Pallen slotted narrowly wide at the other end as the hosts sought a third.

The win was Dartford's third straight and their fifth from five home games this season.
