Allan Ross sent off for violent conduct, striking Bobby Gould, 54 minutes.
The fans’ nerves are frayed again. Alan Ashman’s gritty team hold out after Ross’s sending off for striking Gould, until Machin’s scrambled goal beats stand-in keeper McConnell. Key damages ankle ligaments and the team go to Worthing for a week’s break to recharge the batteries.
