London Colney’s week saw them only pick up one point but they may feel they could have got a few more.
They started with a thrilling game on Saturday with a stirring comeback earning them a 2-2 draw at Cockfosters.
George Beattie had scored twice just passed the midway point of the first-half to give the hosts a solid advantage.
However, there would be drama by the end as the Blueboys battled back.
First Chris Griffin hit a shot that bamboozled the Cockfosters’ defence and nestle in the back of the net.
