EVESHAM United boss Phil Mullen admits that his side has now lost its chance of finishing second in the Dr Martens League Western Division.
The Robins travel to Weston-super-Mare tomorrow (3pm) on the back of two successive defeats at Solihull and Tiverton.
Mullen said: "It was a disappointment but we have had some tough games lately and we just showed a little bit of weariness in our legs.
"It's probably the end of our quest for second place. It was a target, but once it became obvious we weren't going to go up, it was very difficult to control the situation."
With the first leg of the Worcestershire Senior Cup final at Moor Green to come on Thursday, Mullen added: "It is important that this mini-slump ends."
Key defender Paul West is likely to miss the rest of the season with a rib injury while Phil Preedy has a hamstring problem, but Russell Parmenter should be fit.
Evesham: Beattie, Smith, Pendleton, Clark, Powell, Preedy, Licata, Wolsey, McCartan, Pratt, Taylor, Brown, Payne, Hodgetts, Parmenter.
