Northwood gained a very creditable draw in the last game of an often difficult Pitching-In Southern League Division One Central season this afternoon, when they shared the points away to play-off qualifiers Barton Rovers.

The Woods trailed twice in the game, hitting back to level on each occasion, with Devonte Totesaut and joint player-manager Jon-Jo Bates finding the net to earn the 2-2 verdict. The match report and photos are here.

Elsewhere, Leverstock Green's win at AFC Dunstable condemned Kings Langley to Step 5 football next season.

Northwood’s Under 18s needed to win their final Allied Counties League game of the season last night in order to pip their opponents Tring Athletic to the league title. Into stoppage-time, the game was still goalless, which meant that Tring would win the league.

But then, in the final minute the Woods won a corner and goalkeeper Henry Ford, who had come up to help, lashed the ball into the net to secure Northwood’s 1-0 victory – and the title!

Many congratulations to manager Jamie Barry, in his first season in the role, his coaching staff – and the players!!!

Check out James Brown's photos of a great night here.

The Woods will now play away to Badshot Lea or Marlow in the Champions Cup, to be played in the week commencing 12th May.

It was the Woods' final home match of the season at The Skyline Roofing Stadium this afternoon, but visitors Kings Langley spoiled Northwood's celebrations of avoiding relegation when they scored a late winner to boost their own chances of staying up.

An end-to-end entertaining match watched by a good crowd saw Kings Langley lead at the break, but goals from Manny Foralin and Devonte Toutsaut within seven minutes of the restart put Woods in front - only for Langley to level then snatch the winner in stoppage time; 2-3 to the visitors.

A strong performance at North Leigh this afternoon confirmed the Woods' place at Step 4 next season, as they were 4-1 winners in Oxfordshire in their Pitching-In Southern League Division One Central fixture.

Acting Managers Jack Smith and Jon-Jo Bates have really turned around the club's fortunes, and this was their fourth win in the last five outings. All the goals came in the first half, with Rio Connell scoring twice and one apiece from skipper Troy Perez-Duah and Sam Folarin from the penalty spot.

The Woods took another major step towards step four safety with a comfortable 3-0 Pitching-In Southern League Central Division victory over seventh-placed Leighton Town as they notched a third win at The Skyline Roofing Stadium inside eight days.

Northwood couldn’t have made a better start to the game as straight from the kick-off Hassan Jalloh carried the ball forward before slipping it through to Troy Perez-Duah, who scored from a tight angle - and there was just 13 seconds on the clock! Second half goals from Sam Folarin and Josh Williams wrapped up the points for Jack Smith and Jon-Jo Bates' revitalised squad, who moved six points away from the drop with this win, with three matches left to play.

Northwood held off a late rally from play-off seeking Thame United to secure back-to-back Pitching-In Southern League Central Division wins for the first time this season and three more valuable points in their bid for step four survival after a superb performance at The Skyline Roofing Stadium on Tuesday.

The Woods were 3-0 up through an eighth minute Lewis Thorne own goal, Samuel Folarin (30 minutes) and Joshua Williams (77 minutes) and they also saw a penalty saved before two very late Thame goals pulled it back to 3-2, and Northwood held on.

Northwood had a storming victory over Biggleswade at The Skyline Roofing Stadium this afternoon as they continued their efforts to retain their Pitching-In Southern League Central Division status for next season.

The rampant Woods blasted five goals in the opening 45 minutes after Jon-Jo Bates opened the scoring in 11 minutes. Further scores came from Troy Perez-Duah, Sam Folarin, Rio Connell and Jon-Jo, before Sam wrapped up the game in the second half with his second of the game and eighth of the season. The match report and photos are here.

With Leverstock Green also winning, 2-0 against bottom side North Leigh who are now officially relegated, it's still very tight at the bottom, with Northwood still in the bottom three on goal difference - but with Tuesday's home game against Thame in hand.

Northwood were defeated by a single goal by Leverstock Green in tonight's crucial Pitching-In Southern League Division One Central fixture. Leverstock's victory pushed Woods back into the bottom three with six games left to play. The crucial goal came following a 54th minute free-kick which was headed home, leaving Northwood with a real battle to maintain their status.

Joint acting manager Jack Smith commented: “We simply were not good enough but we have to stick together and push on forward as a group. We have six cup finals to play.”
