Despite taking the lead on two occasions through a Phil Marsh brace the Lions had to settle for a draw in their second pre-season game against a Huddersfield Town side containing a mix of first team squad and academy players.
The visitors were first to threaten but Danny Carr fluffed his lines in a one-on-one with Steve Drench who also pulled off a creditable one handed stop from Kallum Higginbotham later on. Guiseley’s first chance came when Marsh was tackled on the edge of the area but even though grounded he still managed to divert the ball into the patch of Wayne Brooksby who brought a good save from Ian Bennett.
Having set up Brooksby, Marsh went one better on 34 minutes latching on to a poor back header by Liam Ridealgh to deliver a delicate lob over Bennett for the opener. The lead was short lived however as Matty Crooks beat Drench with a header from close in after the ball had looped up from Jameel Ible’s tackle on Carr.
Craig Hobson had a well-directed header saved by Bennett after the break before Marsh was pulled back in the area by Tom Smith and slotted home the resulting spot kick.

Jordan Sinnott, son of Altrincham manager Lee, squared matters with nine minutes left with a sweet shot into the far corner from twenty yards out. There was just enough time left for Danny Ellis to make a spectacular clearance from under his own bar to ensure that the Lions got some reward for their efforts against the Terriers.
