ACCRINGTON STANLEY took a good point from their trip to their old Conference rivals.

It was far from a thrilling encounter with neither goalkeeper seriously tested.

Stanley were chiefly restricted to long-range shots, delivered in the main by Roscoe D'Sane, while James Harris and Leighton McGivern blazed wide of the target.
