Doughboys miss top five chance as Steelmen keep alive play-off hopes
Wellingborough Town missed the chance to move into the Pitching-In Northern Premier League Midlands Division play-off places as they were beaten 2-1 at Basford United on Saturday.
A win would have seen the Doughboys move above Belper Town and into fifth, but as it stands they go into the final four matches of the season sitting three points adrift.
Basford netted their opener just before half-time and then added a second before Jack O'Connor netted what was to prove to be an 87th-minute consolation.
Jake Stone's side are quickly back in action on Easter Monday as they entertain AFC Rushden & Diamonds in a huge derby clash at the Dog & Duck (ko 3pm).
Diamonds are 11th and four points behind Borough after their 0-0 draw with Mickleover at Hayden Road on Good Friday.
Corby Town moved above Diamonds into 10th place as they secured a 2-0 win at relegation-threatened Coventry Sphinx on Saturday.
The Steelmen netted twice in the second half through Fletcher Toll and substitute Miguel Ngwa, and the win means they have kept alive their own play-off hopes, as they trail fifth-placed Belper by five points.
Corby are back at home on Easter Monday when they entertain another side in the bottom four, Bourne Town (ko 3pm).
