ANY slim chance of Corsham lifting the Screwfix Premier title evaporated on Saturday. Nobby Bush's men could only draw 0-0 at Barnstaple while leaders Bideford cantered to a 4-0 win over Backwell to extend their lead to 12 points.
Corsham still have three games in hand, but Bideford's vastly superior goal difference means they need just one more win to retain their crown.
Toby Colbourne went closest to breaking the deadlock for Corsham but his first-half strike was tipped around the post by Ross Sanders.
Calne took a step closer to joining their neighbours in the top flight with a resounding 4-0 win at Weston St Johns.
Steve Casey scored the only goal of the first period but Calne ran away with it after the break as Ben Moore , Matt Pratley and Kevin Banks netted.
Biddestone snatched a point in a 2-2 draw at Saltash.
Ollie McAninch and Joe Ochuko scored as Biddestone came from two behind to level.
