Sheppard was again needed to keep the islanders in it as he did well to save from Morris Dench with 20 minutes to go. Graham saw a 76th-minute header tipped over the bar, and were made to pay for their missed chances as the hosts got the only goal three minutes later when Aiden Eckworth stabbed the ball home after Guernsey failed to clear a ball into the box. The loss extended Guernsey's winless record to five games - they last tasted victory on 22 August when they won 1-0 at Roffey.
