STRATFORD Town saw their winless run stretch to five matches following a 2-0 home defeat against Bury Town.
Goals from Taylor Parr and Maxwell Maughn extended the Bards winless run at the Arden Garages Stadium.
The result means Stratford sit 13th in the Southern League Premier Central table.
Bury had the better of the first half and broke the deadlock on the stroke of half time when Parr smashed home after the Bards failed to properly clear their lines.
And the visitors doubled their lead on 56 minutes as Maughn danced through the Stratford defence and found the net.
The Bards searched for a way back into the game as Kory Roberts twice went close while Austin Samuels spurned a good chance from close range.
Stratford are next in action against Kettering Town on Tuesday, March 3 with kick-off at 7.45pm at Latimer Park.
