Stefan Brown’s first-half goal gave Wealdstone a 1-0 victory over Chippenham, leaving them just one point from the play-off places.

Brown’s low left-footed drive cannoned off the post into the net. It clinched the Stones’ first home win since January. [phone]

Jake Sheppard almost doubled the advantage four minutes later when his audacious effort whacked the post.

Chippenham almost equalised five minutes before the break when Nick McCootie attempted a bicycle-kick in the box which was just off-target.

There was another scare for the Stones when captain Jerome Okimo’s clearance almost went past Jonathan North and into his own net before flying away for a corner.

Stones keeper North made a fantastic save from point-blank range to deny Nathaniel Jarvis in the second half.

And in stoppage time, Kieran Parselle almost equalised with a header.
