IF matches lasted 70 minutes Leominster would be fighting for a top five finish this season.

But Town’s 20 minute curse struck again.

On paper, a point off seventh placed Stone isn’t a bad result.

Town, though, were 3-1 up with 15 minutes to go and should have taken all three.

The score leaves Town’s final placing from a disappointing season in the hands of others.

Results at least went the way of the Briarwood Boys on Saturday so they stay 13th.

Two more goals for Terry Williams put Town’s super-striker amongst the division’s top scorers and a third from Ben Price seemed have sealed a deserved win.

As so often this season, all the good work was undone as the clock ran down from the 70 minute mark. Not even a switch to 4-5-1 for the final quarter could lock the game down.

Young Hugo Benson was Town’s man of the match, carrying an injury for much of the game yet still willing to put his foot on or through the ball as required.

The equally promising Matt Watkins pressed his claims for a regular squad place with a mature first-half showing.
