But Pershore regained the lead as new signing Chris Bright netted with another free-kick from just outside the area. Pilkington levelled after half-time and took the lead for the first time in the 65th minute with a header from a set-piece.

However, battling Town equalised on 83 minutes when Bright’s free-kick was nodded in by centre-half Craig Selby for the draw.
