Defeats for Doughboys and Diamonds and a new signing boost for the Steelmen
Wellingborough Town slipped to a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Pitching-In Northern Premier League Midlands Division leaders Quorn on Saturday.
The Doughboys were undone by a strike 10 minutes from time, with the visitors claiming all three points despite playing the final half-hour of the contest at the Dog & Duck with 10 men.
Quorn’s Courey Grantham was the man dismissed, having earlier fired his side into a 45th-minute lead.
The Doughboys hit back to level almost immediately, with Jordan Graham netting in first-half stoppage time, but they were denied a share of the spoils when Zak Goodson scored the late winner for Quorn, who are now eight points clear of Corby Town at the top.
Although disappointed to lose, Doughboys boss Jake Stone was taking the positives from his side’s performance.
“Small margins decide games at this level and we were very good for large parts today,” Stone wrote on social media.
