Dean Wordsworth's 88th minute corner was touched in by a defender but that was all Crawley had to show from a 2-1 defeat at Folkestone Invicta last night.

Reds had enough chances early on to have put the premier division match beyond their hosts' reach.

John Ugbah shot tamely at keeper Dave Wietecha while Dean Wordsworth fired wide after Dave Powell's lay-off.

Powell and the lively Leroy Huggins wasted further chances while Paul Chambers and James Virgo went close for the home side.

Andy Little was called upon to deny James Dryden with a fine save but it was Dryden who set up Anthony Hogg to steer home on 52 minutes to give Folkestone the lead against the run of play.

Wordsworth and Mark Hynes missed good chances to equalise for Crawley before Dryden scrambled in Folkestone's second goal in the 80th minute.

Hastings Town crashed to a humiliating 5-0 defeat at home to Grantham Town in the eastern division.

Four goals in the first 25 minutes enabled Grantham to emulate their home win from earlier in the month.

Returning first choice keeper Tony Kessell gifted Grantham their opener on seven minutes when he dropped a corner and Adrian Speed pounced.

Dave Taylor doubled the advantage from close range and Lee Marshall swept in a third after Hastings had again made a complete hash of a corner.

Things when from bad to worse when Matt Ball was sent off for tripping Gary Bull as he raced through on goal.

Within a minute it was 4-0 and Brendon McDaid converted a header.

Ten-man Hastings battled gamely in the second half and Kessell did well to save a penalty from Bull.

But Grantham had the last word when Taylor grabbed their fifth 20 minutes from time.
