Tonbridge Angels' Ryman League Premier Division play-off prospects were hit as they were held to a 1-1 draw at AFC Hornchurch on Tuesday night.

Angels are now two points and two places off the top-five in Ryman League Premier Division, but have a game in hand on some of their rivals.
Cray Wanderers lost 2-1 at home to Sutton United but other results mean the Wands are safe for another season.
Colin Luckett grabbed a consolation 25 minutes from time after Sutton had gone in 2-0 up at the break after goals on 11 minutes and 39 minutes.
Champions Dartford made it seven games without defeat as they drew 1-1 at Wealdstone.
Lee Noble lobbed the visitors infront, latching onto a through ball on 18 minutes, but the Stones levelled from a long throw seven minutes from time.
Maidstone United lost 3-0 at Hendon on Monday night but other results mean the Stones need just one win from their final two games to seal their survival.

Ashford's Ryman League Division 1 South status remains in the balance after a 3-1 defeat to play-off-bound Worthing at Homelands on Wednesday night.

Town have lost four on the trot and five of six but lie two points clear of Walton Casuals going into the final game, though Steve Lovell's side have a significantly worse goal difference.
