Away day glee for Andre Gray
Hinckley United played their 4th away game without recording a win, but gained a credible draw at Harrogate Town. Hinckley, who have only beaten Harrogate twice in the 12 games between the clubs, started with the same team who lost at Corby, and again with just the 3 substitutes named.

A much better start for Hinckley saw a Jack Roberts shot blocked, and an Andre Gray chip wide before they took the lead in the 12th minute. Roberts played in Gray, who passed to Lloyd Kerry and his shot took a deflection before nestling in the corner of the net. The lead was shortlived as Harrogate equalised almost straight from the restart. Ciaran Toner fired a shot from the edge of the area that beat Danny Haystead to level the scores. Graeme Armstrong had two chances for Harrogate, one saved by Haystead and the other wide, before Hinckley suffered an injury setback losing Gavin Strachan on the half hour. Hinckley forced a number of corners with Gray and James Reid having efforts on goal, but it was Harrogate that took a half time lead. James Mace committed a foul on Liam Hardy in the area and Armstrong blasted his penalty past Haystead for a 2-1 lead. Hinckley thought they had equalised in the second half but Gary King's goal was ruled out, however Andre Gray scored his first goal for the club with 15 minutes left to make the score 2-2. Stephan Morley played in a deep free kick from the left and Gray was on hand to put the ball into the Harrogate net and gain an away point.
