Southgate could only manage a 1-1 draw away to lowly Trojans. Rupert Welch gave the London club a 10th-minute lead but Trojans equalised through Wayne Shepherd.
Stuart Avery got off his sick bed to score the only goal in Havant's 1-0 win at Welton, which moves them back into contention, just one point behind the leaders. Teddington beat St Albans 2-0 to stay fourth, while East Grinstead's 5-3 win against Canterbury moved the Sussex side into fifth place.
In Saturday's women's National League, Balsam Leicester nudged themselves into the Premier Division leadership with a 1-0 win over Clifton. Slough, the overnight leaders, could only manage a goalless draw at home to Ipswich.
England's return to the indoor arena in Cologne was judged by their manager, John Hurst, as a success despite losing twice to German club sides on Saturday and 8-5 to Switzerland yesterday. Bob Crutchley scored five of England's total of 15 goals.
