Meanwhile, Joe Sweeney netted three of Grays’ four unanswered goals at home to Ware. Heybridge also scored four times without reply at Thamesmead. New boys Leiston were 3-1 up with five minutes left at Waltham Abbey but had to settle for a 3-3 draw; Steve Cawley grabbed a last-minute equaliser, his second of the game. The other newcomers to this division, Soham, are pleased to have been transferred from the Southern League but were less happy with a 3-2 home defeat by Waltham Forest, for whom Josh Bonnett scored twice before being sent off. Bookies’ favourites Sudbury led 2-0 at Redbridge but, like Leiston, were left frustrated by a last-minute leveller from Billy Sendall, while fancied Brentwood were set for a draw at Tilbury until Gary Henty and Jack West struck for Dockers in the last five minutes. Bradley Potter was another 90th-minute matchwinner as Chatham, switched from the South division, took the points 1-0 at Maldon. Cheshunt beat Great Wakering 2-0, Harlow edged out Romford with a lone goal and Enfield Town drew 1-1 at Ilford.
