THERE was high drama and a dramatic ending as Grays were denied a win in the closing stages of their FA Cup clash at Stotfold.

The match ended 2-2 with Stotfold scoring in the 97th minute to cancel out Sam Bantick's injury time goal. Nevertheless Grays will go into the First Qualifying round draw pending the outcome of their replay.

Also in the draw will be East Thurrock United who won 1-0 at FC Clacton.

However, Tilbury are out - beaten 3-0 at Waltham Abbey.

It was also a bad day for Isthmian Premier Aveley whose impressive start to the season was turned on its head with a 6-1 home defeat by Bognor.
