It was the second disappointment of the weekend for Deeping.

They played at Diss Town in a Thurlow Nunn Youth League play-off against AFC Sudbury on Friday night and were going for the treble having already won the West Division title and the League Cup.

They beat South Division winners Sudbury in the League Cup final but this time Sudbury got their revenge, edging home 2-1 with Robert Conyard scoring the Deeping goal.
