Basingstoke Town suffered a blow after losing consecutive matches against Bracknell Town and Hayes & Yeading United in just three days.

The defeats come on the heels of another loss to Salisbury the previous weekend.

On Saturday, an injury-depleted Basingstoke fell 3-1 at home to Bracknell Town.

The visitors took an early lead through Joe Grant in the 18th minute, and doubled their advantage with a goal from Great Evans just before halftime.

Liam Ferdinand managed to pull a goal back for 'Stoke just before the break, but their hopes were dashed when Bracknell were awarded a penalty in the 81st minute, converted by Jordan Esprit.

Tuesday night offered no respite for Basingstoke as they travelled to London to face Hayes and Yeading United.

A solitary goal scored by the home side in the 36th minute proved to be the difference.

Dan Rowe thought he had equalised for 'Stoke just after halftime, but his effort was ruled offside. Although Hayes and Yeading were reduced to ten men in the dying minutes, 'Stoke were unable to capitalise.

'Stoke will face Swindon Supermarine at 1.30pm away on Saturday, April 13.

Basingstoke are currently placed 12th in the table, but there is still a slight chance to climb to seventh if they win their games and other results go in their favour.
