Guiseley and AFC Telford United both demonstrated why they are down amongst the deadmen in tonights crucial relegation six pointer at Nethermoor where both sides could only manage one meaningful shot on goal in the ninety four minutes of play, read more in our match report sponsored by BuildADrive.com.
Prince Ekpolo returned to the starting line-up after his four match suspension and the home side were given the perfect opportunity to take an early lead when they were awarded a penalty after just ten minutes.
New signing John Johnston stepped up to take the spot kick but his effort was easily saved by Luke Pilling and the opportunity was gone.
After that both sides struggled to gain any momentum with passes going astray or given back to the opposition, and neither goalkeeper was seriously threatened throughout the remaining 84 minutes.
The upshot of the failure to secure three points against Telford is that Farsley did what Guiseley failed to do on Saturday, and beat Lemington 1-0 at the Citadel, as a result of which the Lions now sit bottom of the table, albeit with a game in hand on Farsley and three games in hand on Telford.
Which may all be well and good but unless the management can find the consistency that has eluded the team so far this season in the eleven games that remain, things are not looking good.
There was also a fracas in the tunnel as the teams left the field after the game and goalkeeper Owen Mason was shown a red card by the referee which just compounds a forgettable night for the Lions.
