JAMES Bonner struck deep into stoppage time to help Holker Old Boys salvage a point away to Garstang in North West Counties League First Division North on Wednesday evening.
JP Stanway had given the visitors the lead in the 66th minute, only for them to be pegged back 10 minutes later by Alan Coar and then go behind when Tom Entwistle slotted home from the penalty spot in the 92nd minute.
However, seven minutes into added time, Bonner pounced to earn Holker a 2-2 draw and put another point on the board ahead of tomorrow’s trip to AFC Darwen.
