Boro joint boss Nigel Fanthorpe felt his team deserved more from the clash.
He said: "We were in the ascendancy at 2-2 and should have won the game, but we let a sloppy goal in.
"It's a bit disappointing but a good effort all-round from the lads.
"We had the bull by the horns, but a lack of marking at the back on a free-kick cost us dearly."

“I agree twittowoo great advert for local football had everything passion the lot. Just seen the attendance no way was 219 people there not sure how that figure came about 150 at most. But for those that stayed away you missed a cracker.”

“A proper derby this one. Crunching tackles, off the ball incidents, a fight back and lots of gaols. Well done to both sides for a very entertaining game. If only the officials had performed as well as the teams. Some very strange decisions going against both teams which left a lot of people bemused.”
