RUGBY TOWN: Valuable point against play-off chasing Basford
Rugby Town held sixth-placed Basford United to a 1-1 draw at Butlin Road on Saturday. But results elsewhere didn’t help their relegation battle, when Loughborough Dynamo beat former manager Dave Stringer’s Chasetown 2-0 to swap places with Rugby.
Loughborough are now third from bottom on 22 points, with Rugby next on 20 and Northwich Victoria at the foot of the NPL Division One South table on 15.
