On Tuesday night at home to Three Bridges, the visitors took a first-minute lead through Kieron Pamment and trailed for almost the whole game.
But Cameron Dobell popped up with a late equaliser to secure what could be a vital point, one which leaves the Blues in 18th spot – the bottom of two relegation play-off places – on 30 points.
Two points and two places better off than Heath are Burgess Hill Town, who slipped to two home defeats as they failed to build on their 4-0 win at East Grinstead that marked Matt Longhurst’s first match as boss.
