Burton Park Wanderers 1 Huntingdon Town 2
ANOTHER late, late, show from Huntingdon Town earned them three points at Burton - but manager Darren Young was far from happy.

"A draw probably would have been a fair result," he said. "But Burton paid for not taking their chances."
Two goals inside the final five minutes from Richard Moore and Lee Garvie secured the win after Wanderers had dominated from the off.

Young added: "I felt sorry for the home side in a way but they didn't kill us off.
