Trophy disappointment for Deeping, shock defeat for Peterborough League leaders and all the weekend Non-League fixtures

A Jordan Nuttall goal in the ninth minute and a a 64th minute strike from Marshall Young delivered a deserved victory for Boston.

There was a minute’s applause before the game for Deeping stalwart Simon Dethick who passed away recently.

Blackstones suffered a 5-2 defeat at Southwell City in United Counties Division One despite a 30th goal of the season for Ryan Lennon.

And the miserable run of form for Peterborough Premier Division leaders FC Peterborough continued with a 2-1 defeat at home to Stamford Bels for whom Luke Gasson and Louie Robers scored.

It’s a packed Easter programme for non-league clubs next with Stamford requiring four points from games at Gresley on Saturday and at home to Spalding United on Monday to clinch the Northern Premier Midlands Division title.

They could even win it on Saturday if results go their way.

There’s a tasty United Counties Division One derby on Monday when Blackstones host Bourne Town.
