Bidefords 10 match unbeaten run comes to an end with a defeat against 5th place Longwell Green. Bideford stay top of the table, but only one point now seperates the Robins and Ilfracombe.

Report from The North Devon Journal

A late calamity from goalkeeper Ryan Draper saw the Robins slip to a 2-1 defeat in Bristol.

Draper, who had kept six clean sheets in his last seven games, took too long dealing with a back-pass and was dispossessed.

Longwell Green went ahead after two minutes when a misdirected cross flew straight over the visiting keeper.

But the league leaders looked on course for a point when Kevin Squire equalised 12 minutes from time.

A first league defeat since the 2-0 reverse at Brislington on October 17 has seen Biddy's lead cut to just one point, although they have played a game less than second placed Ilfracombe Town.
