Whitby Town came into the game on an absolute high following their successful 3-1 victory, just over a week before, against Chelmsford City in the FA Cup which earned them a place in the competitions ‘first round proper’.
With Park Avenue without a win in any competition since 2 September, sitting 18th in the Northern Premier League, it was a performance of paramount importance. After going a goal down in the first half, it was substitute Chinedu Osadebe who’s goal just after half-time meant that the points were shared.
I spoke to Bradford (Park Avenue) manager Mark Bower after the game.
