Borough remain in play-off picture as Donnelly earns Hawks a point on road

The visitors had club captain Sam Pearce back in their starting line-up after recalling him from his loan spell at Farnborough.

Lee Wort went closest to breaking the deadlock in the first half with a low shot that thumped back off the woodwork.

Earlier, a defensive mix up between Josh Hill and goalkeeper Ryan Young had gifted the home side the lead.

The point wasn’t enough to lift Lee Bradbury’s team out of the bottom three.
