Shortly after Town had halved the deficit Daz Clough was shown the red card for allegedly swearing at the ref, then Luke Delve added a third and the points seemed to be heading back to Seamer.

But Filey had other ideas and struck twice to earn a share of the spoils. Liam Sugden scored twice for the hosts, with Will Hunter also netting.

Seamer chief Paddy Parke said: “I am proud of how all the lads grafted together and we deserved more from the game.”

Town boss Dave Brannan added: “I think the players battled really well especially in the second half to get a point with 10 men and we could have nicked it late on.”
