Guernsey FC remain in relegation trouble after a 1-1 draw at Raynes Park Vale in Isthmian League South Central.
The draw, which was Guernsey's game in hand over their relegation rivals, keeps Tony Vance's side third-from-bottom of the table.
The Green Lions are six points from safety with five games to play, although their goal difference is worse than the sides around them.
The islanders led at half-time thanks to Ross Allen scoring for a seventh successive appearance.
Guernsey's record goalscorer converted a 35th-minute penalty after Jacques Cauvain had been fouled in the penalty area.
The hosts started the second half well and were rewarded when Trevan Robinson converted Tyler Cox's cross from close range for his sixth goal in his last six games.
Guernsey travel to already-relegated Badshot Lea, who are bottom of the table, on Saturday in a game that could be crucial to their survival hopes ahead of games against mid-table sides Southall and Binfield.
