Henley Hawks' hopes of avoiding relegation from National 2 suffered another major blow with a 29-18 home defeat to Wharfedale.
Realistically they will need to win all their remaining five games if they are to have any chance of staying up.
Wharfedale's Andy Baggett and Henley fly half Jim Farndon exchanged penalties in the first quarter.
The vistors drove hooker Gavin Hindle over for their first try after his opposite number, Dinos Alexipoulos, had been sin-binned.
Andrew Hodgson set up Mark Bedworth for Wharfedale try No 2, which Baggett converted.
Henley hit back after visiting wing Chris Malherbe had been yellow-carded with flanker Tom King burrowing his way over.
Two penalties from Bagget and one from Farndon completed the first-half scoring.
Trailing 15-11 Henley looked in with a chance, but tries from Malherbe and No.8 Rob Baldwin ended their hopes.
King stretched over for his second, which Farndon converted, but Henley couldn't snatch a losing bonus point.
