Grays Athletic 1 v 0 Peacehaven and Telscombe
AN 88th minute winner from Grays Athletic's Kenny Beaney saw the Blues take all three points at Mill Field.
The victory sees Grays move up to tenth place in the league.
Playing on a Sunday, the Blues found newly promoted Peacehaven a tough prospect to wear down.
In many ways, it took all of boss Jody Brown's managerial acumen to engineer the three points.
He made three key substitutions including Leroy Griffiths, who had played just 24 hours earlier for Hereford United.
The goal when it came saw a header saved by the keeper but Kenny Beaney knocked it in on the re-bound.
With new signing, former Southend player, Mark Bentley on the bench, the Grays squad are looking strong as well as slowly climbing up the league.
The team return to action on Wednesday, away at lowly Lewes.
Grays Ath: Cough C, Best-Riley A, Yala R, Glowacki J, Parry M, Leader J, Wilson J (Little G 64), Beaney K, Guy J (Griffiths L 78), Benjamin J (Ladapo F 61), Carlos J.
Subs not used: Bentley M, Bryan C
