Individual mistakes are costing Carlisle City points after another late goal sank them at Gillford Park.
They went down 3-2 as for the second week in a row an injury time goal won it for the opposition.
Goalkeeper Lewis Body dropped a cross in the time added on and was punished with the visitors’ winner.
Manager Jim Nichol said: “We are on that sort of a run at the moment with individual mistakes killing us.
“All three were our mistakes which were punished by Heaton Stannington and if you keep making mistakes you are not going to win football matches.
“We talked after the game and agreed that you can do all the work in training but it doesn’t guard against individual mistakes on a match day.

- Away goal scorers: Daniel Stephenson (7) Louis Anderson (27, 90)
“We got off to a great start with a goal on two minutes but then gave them the equaliser five minutes later.
“A guy got away at a corner to put them ahead but we equalised and honestly I thought we were quite capable of going on and winning the game.
“We had chances to win but couldn’t take them and then a mistake cost us. I am sure things will turn.”
Jordan Irving had given City their early lead but they were pegged back and trailed 2-1 at half time to goals from Dan Stephenson and Louis Anderson.
City came on strong in the second half and equalised through Jordan Holt before disaster struck in injury time and Anderson grabbed his second.
