HUW GRIFFITHS failed to hide his disappointment as Cefn Druids contrived to lose a "nothing game" against Carmarthen Town 1-0.

An enterprising first-half made way for a second period that "died a death" and the two teams, battling it out for ninth place, looked on course to play out a goalless draw.

But Druids' defender Nathan Peate made a defensive error and as he tried to rectify his mistake he handled Liam Thomas's goal-bound shot.

Referee Tom Owen had no hesitation in pointing to the spot and Thomas calmed dispatched the penalty to hand Carmarthen a victory, which moves them above Druids on goal difference.

Druids boss Griffiths said: "I'm disappointed. It was a nothing game in which we were the better side during the first-half and created a few chances.

"The second-half died a death and it looked as though it was going to finish goalless.

"But Nathan made a mistake and then couldn't get out of the way of a shot.

"It was blasted at him from five yards, but I've got no complaints."

Druids will conclude their campaign on Friday at Llandudno, who made sure they have avoided finishing rock-bottom by beating fellow strugglers Llanelli 4-0.

Sameron Dool and George Harry scored in the first-half, before Yalani Baio struck a double after the break to secure Llandudno's victory.

Llandudno, meanwhile, are on the lookout for a new permanent manager after Iwan Williams confirmed that he would not be returning to the post next season.

A statement from the club read: "The club wishes Iwan and his family well outside of football, and hope that his personal circumstances improve off the field."

Cardiff Met wrapped up their place in the play-offs by beating their rivals for seventh spot, Aberystwyth Town, 1-0.

An own goal from Declan Walker handed Cardiff Met the three points, which meant that the capital-based side will face either Caernarfon or Newtown in the race for the final Europa League spot.
