Southern League Premier Division South Bracknell Town ended a run of seven games without a win on Saturday at Wimborne Town.
Jon Underwood’s side won 2-1 at Wimborne Town, scoring their first goals in three games with the win at the Dorset strugglers.
Seb Bowerman scored twice for the Robins on the road before Wimborne pulled one back to setup a tense final few minutes.
The win gives Bracknell hope of a play-off run although they have played one more game than the sides around them.
Fellow Berkshire side Hungerford Town meanwhile marked the presentation of the clubs centenary award by the Berks & Bucks County FA with a 1-0 win at home to Havant & Waterlooville. As well as the award, the Crusaders saw former striker Ryan Seager return to the club with the visitors while new signing Jordon Ibe came off the bench to replace Kyle Tooze on 72 minutes.
Slough Town’s Slavi Spasov was on target for the Rebels in the Vanarama National League South fixture at Dorking Wanderers but Scott Davies’ side were on the wrong end of a 3-1 defeat at the division leaders – who had at least one supporter in hot-water.
In the Southern League Division One South, Thatcham Town’s own relief came at the end of a run of four straight defeats with James Davies scoring the only goal of the game in a 1-0 win over Larkhall Athletic.
Yashwa Romeo’s side are in a relegation battle and are eight points off safety with tough games against Bashley and Bristol Manor Farm on the horizon.
Elsewhere, Kickie Dzimba scored his first goal for Ascot United as the Yellas enhanced their play-off credentials with a 2-0 win at home to Harrow Borough in the Isthmian League South Central Division One.
In the Combined Counties League Premier Division North, Holyport won the Berkshire battle with Reading City 2-0 to keep themselves well in the play-off hunt while Virginia Water and Burnham did themselves no harm with respective 1-0 and 4-1 home wins.
In Division One, Windsor & Eton went back to the top of the table with a 2-0 win at Chalfont St Peter, Oliver Graham and Pawel Kowallkowski on the scoresheet while Eversley & California stayed in the play-off hunt with a 1-0 win at Staines & Lammas.
