NELSON slid to defeat at Oldham thanks to an injury time goal by substitute Wesley Cathcart.
The outcome may have been different if Craig Bradshaw had made more of his chances in the first half but the Blues fell behind after 58 minutes when a defensive mix-up let in Kevin Beattie.
Danny Whittaker got his head to a corner and nodded in the equaliser after 85 minutes, and the Blues almost took the lead when Duncan Bennett blasted his shot over the bar from 12 yards.
However, three minutes into injury time a quick break set up Cathcart to score a dramatic winner.
OLDHAM TOWN...2
NELSON...1
