The point for Lee Bradbury’s men was enough, though, as Bognor were held to a 1-1 draw by Met Police.

Jimmy Muitt had given the Rocks the lead but their hopes of overhauling the Hawks were dashed when Will Salmon silenced the Nyewood Lane crowd on 71 minutes.

Meanwhile, a stoppage-time leveller at Concord Rangers condemned Gosport Borough to the drop from National League South.

Alex Pike’s side had come from behind to lead 2-1 thanks to a superb double from Tony Lee.

However, James White’s strike two minutes into time added on dealt the killer blow.

Victories for fellow strugglers Whitehawk and Truro City mean Borough are four points adrift with only one game remaining.
