And they left it late to seal the points with Luke Stevens putting them in front on 87 minutes before Andy White added the third in stoppage-time.

Raunds Town’s recent revival under Ben Watts continued in Division One as they claimed their third win of the season.

The Shopmates went 4-0 up in the first half against local rivals Thrapston Town and eventually ran out 4-1 winners to move to within four points of their opponents who now sit second-from-bottom.

Burton Park Wanderers are now third-from-bottom in the table after they were beaten 2-1 at Huntingdon Town, Ryan Bell scoring the goal for Daren Young’s team.
