The Nailers stay second and are six points behind the leaders after defeating lowly Bourne, who finished with 10 men.

Richard Jones was shown a straight red card in the 36th minute after hacking down Kevin Bastos.

Bourne keeper Daniel Swan was in good form to frustrate the Nailers throughout and he saved a Bastos penalty in the 50th minute.

However, the Nailers were awarded another spot kick when Swan fouled Liam Moran and this time Jacob Fenton stepped up to make no mistake with the penalty and give Belper the lead.
