HARROGATE Town picked up a point in their bid to pull away from the Blue Square North relegation zone on Saturday, drawing 2-2 at Colwyn Bay.
Town went a goal down in the first half and were still 1-0 behind at half-time.
But an Alex Meechan goal shortly into the second stanza put Town on level pegging.
Colwyn scored again but Chib Chilaka grabbed Town’s second of the afternoon to earn a valuable point for the Wetherby Roaders.
They remain one place and one point above the bottom three, in 19th.
Vauxhall Motors drop back into danger after a 2-0 defeat at Bishop’s Stortford.
