The boys travelled to the North East for their longest away trip of the season, 324 Shrimpers making the trip, heroes all. With Wes Fonguck and Ollie Coker out thru injury , just two subs again, Mooney starts and Brooklyn Kabongolo slots into the back line. Gateshead in good form …
First half and Heed put Blues under pressure, David Martin saves well but no chance with Wearne scoring on just 14mins. Kabongolo has a couple of chances from set pieces but Blues are happy to see halfo at only 0-1.
Second half and chances and saves by Martin, Mooney off for Woods who hits the post with a shot. Heed hit the post too and Blues immediately equalise, with Handsome Harry Cardwell firing home a rebound from a GSM shot on 75mins. Blues survive late chances for the Heed and come away with a hard earned point.
