DORCHESTER have now gone 11 games without a win after relinquishing a two-goal lead at home to Newport County in their FA Cup second qualifying round clash.

Ryan Moss gave the home side the lead in the 17th minute and doubled the Magpies' advantage shortly after half-time when he converted a penalty at the second time of asking.

But a Rob Duffy spot kick at the other end less than 10 minutes later gave County a lifeline and they found an equaliser through Danny Rose with just six minutes left on the clock to force a replay on Wednesday night.

See Monday's Echo for full report and reaction.

Slade the Leveller, Dorchester says...

Did anyone notice Steve King in the stand this afternoon, on his mobile for most of the match and clutching a file under his arm. He was in a bright red shirt so you couldn't really miss him. In very good spirits he was too.
