George Elokobi said it had been coming as Maidstone stopped the rot with a draw at Yeovil. The Stones were set for a 10th straight National League defeat before Jerome Binnom-Williams’ thumping injury-time header from George Fowler’s free-kick earned a 2-2 draw.

They produced arguably their best all-round 45 minutes under caretaker boss Elokobi in the first half, leading at the break through Sha’mar Lawson.

And while Alex Fisher’s strike and a Sam Bone own goal in a three-minute spell put Yeovil in front, the visitors kept going and got their reward.

They remain bottom of the league but the draw is a starting point in Maidstone’s survival bid. Elokobi said: “It was a great ball from George Fowler, in the right area, where the keeper is thinking should I go, should I not? “But that was an exceptional header from Jerome.
