SCOTT WALKER missed from the spot with six minutes remaining as Chippenham failed to arrest their dismal home record.
Keeper Mark Ovendale saved the spot kick after James Constable was brought down and Tiverton escaped with a point from a 0-0 draw.
The loss of more points at home saw the Bluebirds slip down the table from second to sixth.
The referee didn't help Walker's cause, stopping him as he ran-up to take the spot kick as he believed the ball had moved in the strong winds.
And official Martin Bryant had not endeared himself to the home side much earlier when Ben Kirk was hauled back in the box by Tiverton's Nathan Rudge.
"To be fair we did well and pressurised them for the whole game," said Chippenham boss Steve White, "But we still can't get that elusive home win.
"We had the chance of winning the game at the end but Scott Walker missed the penalty after the referee stopped him in his run-up the first time. The lad is distraught but he doesn't need to be it is just one of those things.
"I was still pleased with the performance and hope we can carry that forward into Chesham (today) which will be tough."
