Although they would have been disappointed not to make it three successive wins in all competitions, Saturday’s 1-1 draw against Worthing did at least extend United’s run without defeat.

Merstham - who picked up four points against United last term including a draw at The Pilot Field - drew 2-2 away to last season’s play-off finalists Folkestone Invicta on Saturday.
