Pinchbeck United lost 1-0 at home to Haverhill Rovers in the Thurlow Nunn Division One North on Saturday.
Despite a battling performance that saw the Knights create chances, they were unable to take any.
A second half strike from Haverhill’s Shaun Avis from close range on the hour mark gave the visitors all three points.

But the Knights were unable to find the equaliser.
