Folkestone Invicta remain bottom of Ryman League Premier Division and are eight points from safety with just four games remaining after losing 2-0 at Harrow Borough on Saturday.

The hosts opened the scoring four minutes before the break and the killer second arrived eight minutes into the second-half.

Maidstone United are just a point further ahead after a 1-0 home defeat to promotion-chasing Canvey Island.

The Stones suffered their 14th home league defeat of the campaign with a long-range Rob King strike two minutes after half-time enough to seal the points, despite the visitors being reduced to 10-men 11 minutes from time after an off-the-ball incident.

The bottom four all lost but fifth-bottom Hastings overcame a depleted Margate 3-0 to give the clubs in the relegation zone a mountain to climb,

Without Jamie Turner, Laurence Ball, Craig Cloke, Dean Hill, Wayne Wilson and James Pinnock Gate fell 1-0 down on the half-hour and it was 2-0 on the stroke of half-time before a third in second-half stoppage time.

Gate are 16th but cannot be cause by the sides in the relagation zone with four games remaining,

Tonbridge Angels' play-off hopes were hit as they were held to a 3-3 draw by Tooting & Mitcham.

The visitors burst into a 2-0 lead in 25 minutes before Frannie Collin (pictured) halved the deficit from distance on 29 minutes and Scott Kinch grabbed the equaliser four minutes later.

Ade Olorunda completed the turnaround in the 63rd minute but the visitors levelled three minutes later to earn a share of the points.

Angels are two points and three places outside the play-off places but have a game in hand remaining.

Cray Wanderers' play-off push was ended by a 2-1 defeat at Kingstonian.

The Ks were 1-0 up within 15 minutes but Danny Phillips drew Cray level shortly after the half-hour.

The hosts snatched the winner nine minutes after the break meaning Wands are now 11th and seven points adrift of the top-five with four games remaining.
