Harrogate Railway failed to score for the first time this season in the goal-less draw at Warrington Town in challenging conditions.

The Evo Stik Division One North’s in-form side remain in contention for a play-offs spot.

The heavy wind and later rain caused major problems for both sides, but they did carve out chances.

Railway’s young goalkeeper Tom Goodwin made saves from Ash Ruane and former Bradford (Park Avenue) winger Chris Gaghan.

Nathan Cartman went close for Harrogate, as did Lawrence Hunter.

In the closing stages, substitute Stephen Bromley was denied in a glorious one-on-one situation.

Harrogate Railway manager Billy Miller said: “Fair play to both sides because the conditions were really poor.

“It made it really difficult for us and Warrington. We always knew that the scoring would come to an end and it takes pressure away from us.

“We had chances to score, but to be fair to Warrington so did they.”
