WORTHING all but clinched a place in the Ryman division one south play-offs with a 4-2 win away to Eastbourne Town.

The Rebels need to lose both their remaining games and concede a plus-17 goal difference in the process to be denied a top five finish.

But joint manager Danny Bloor says there is still plenty to play for.

He said: “If we finish second or third we get a home game in the semi-finals so we need to stay focused and continue our run.”

Goals from Mickey Demetriou and Chris O’Flaherty, with a screamer, were cancelled out by Jamie Salvidge and Danny Simmonds, with an excellent free-kick, but Rebels won with further strikes from Jamie Brotherton and substitute Lee Farrell.

l Doomed Bognor had an excellent 1-0 win over Blue Square south title-chasers Eastleigh thanks to a Danny Smith goal on 58 minutes.

Smith volleyed home from 12 yards after Louie Castles’s corner kick was flicked on. Michael Byrne protected Rocks’ lead with a goalline clearance.
