Police add to Harrow's woes

Lying 20th, a single point above Thurrock and Carshalton in the relegation spots, Harrow went ahead in the 26th minute through Frankie Merrifield. Ty Smith equalised with a cracking strike in the 58th minute but Danny Leech restored Harrow’s lead with 20 minutes to go.

Three points would have lifted them three places in the table but they finished with none. Dave Knight levelled the scores again with 11 minutes left and Craig Watkins won it in the 86th minute.

Harrow would have dropped into the bottom two had the goalless stalemate continued for 90 minutes at Thurrock, where Canvey were the visitors. But the game was called off at half-time after heavy rain. So Thurrock remained in the relegation, though they have six games in hand on Harrow.

Second-placed Wealdstone are nine points behind leaders Whitehawk, with one game in hand, after being held to a 1-1 draw at Leiston. Tom Pett gave Wealdstone the lead just before the half-hour and Emmanuel Osei replied with 12 minutes left to make it Leiston’s seventh draw in 12 home games.
