Maidstone and Cray shared the points in the Ryman League Premier Division Kent derby at Homelands on Saturday.

The Stones came close to taking an early lead when Steve Elliott’s cross found Ant Bodle and his header grazed the post after four minutes.

Cray had a penalty appeal turned down after 20 minutes when Leigh Bremner was bundled over in box by a combination of Peter Hawkins and Rob Lyall.

The visitors then took the lead after 24 minutes when George Porter’s shot deflected into the net off Lyall.

Cray hit the bar after the break, but six minutes from time the Stones equalised. Dean Rance threaded the ball through to Peter Hawkins and he kept his calm to finish superbly.

Tonbridge were 3-1 winners over Canvey Island at Longmead.

They took the lead when Lee Minshull crossed for Kirk Watts to head the ball into the net.

Paul Booth tapped in Angels’ second after Adam Burchell’s shot rebounded off the post only for James Rowe to pull one back for the visitors before half-time.

Rowe saw red in the second half following a challenge keeper Lee Worgan, before substitute Jerahl Hughes go Tonbridge’s third.
