Tooting & Mitcham kept their automatic promotion hopes alive with a 1-0 win over relegated Godalming Town on Saturday.

Billy Smith's men, who play in the Surrey Senior Cup final on Tuesday and the London Senior Cup final two days later, were far from their best, but Ronnie Green's seventh-minute goal proved decisive.

Unfortunately for Tooting, Maidstone United stayed on top with a game in hand after a 2-1 win over Kingstonian.

They left it late, Ryan Royston's headed winner coming with only seven minutes left.

Both sides had earlier got on the scoresheet through own goals.

Dulwich Hamlet's promotion hopes were finally extinguished despite a storming home fightback to draw 3-3 with Ashford Town.

Hamlet's results have nosedived since the departure of top scorer Chris Dickson and, at 3-1 down with two minutes left an embarrassing defeat looked on the cards.

But Daniel Morris struck twice late on to add to Damien Scannell's original equaliser in first-half stoppage time to salvage a point.

However, Scannell's season is over after he was stretchered off with a hamstring injury after an hour.

Met Police's hopes of a miraculous run into the play-offs are also over despite a 2-0 win at Whyteleafe, Luke Cornwall and Jon Daly getting their goals.

The Blues finished with 10 men after Dave Newman's 73rd-minute red card for violent conduct, but Whyteleafe were unable to take advantage.

Julien Thompson's late equaliser salvaged a 2-2 draw for mid-table Leatherhead at home to Cray Wanderers, Steve Sargent having given the Tanners a first-half lead.

Molesey had player-manager Steve Beeks sent off for dissent during a crushing 5-1 home defeat by Sittingbourne.

Jamie Lee Smithers got Molesey's consolation goal in the last minute.

Walton Casuals' recent revival continued with a shock 0-0 draw at the division's top scorers Dartford, a result that looks to have ended the hosts' play-off hopes.

Croydon Athletic may have avoided relegation in a troubled season, but they were no match for Fleet Town, where they lost 3-0.

Relegated Corinthian Casuals boosted their hopes of avoiding bottom spot with a shock 0-0 draw at fourth-placed Hastings United.

Casuals keeper Colin Harris had a fine game to leave the amateurs two points behind Godalming with a game in hand.

They might even have bridged the gap completely had Andre McCollin, clean through on goal, not been denied by a great save from Lee Worgan.
