Fancied Town bounced back to share the spoils after Eynesbury emerged from a dismal pre-season to find their form when it mattered.

Ryan Byrne started Town's fightback two minutes before the interval, pouncing to net after Danny Workman saved from Danny Finlay, with defender Luke Walker levelling after 72 minutes to give Town a precious point.
