In front of the TV cameras Harriers played out their first goalless draw in a year and first draw of the season.

Despite the lack of goals, and clear-cut scoring chances, the game was actually quite absorbing with some decent passing football played by both sides.

Harriers, unchanged from the side that had beaten Halifax earlier in the week, had the best of the first half but it was the visitors who went close first; Martin Rowlands' free-kick 25 yards out on the left beat the wall but drifted wide of the near post.  This was the best that the visitors could muster in the half.  Harriers were let down by poor finishing, also; midway through the half Callum Gittings' driving run allowed him to set up Michael Gash, his cross from the right found Anthony Malbon who headed wide of the far post squandering their best chance of the half.

After the break Harriers continued to enjoy more of the possession and after just six minutes were causing problems for the visiting defence; Danny Jackman's pass set Malbon away on the left, he got into the penalty area but fired into the side-netting.  Finally Harriers had the game's first shot on target just before the hour mark when Lee Fowler's cross-field pass found Lee Vaughan with space on the right wing to run into and he forced a save from Town's debutant keeper Nick Pope low to his left at the foot of the post.

Malbon forced another save from Pope twenty minutes from the end after Gash and substitute Amari Morgan-Smith combined to create the opening and he was involved again in an injury time goalmouth scramble that almost saw Harriers grab an unlikely winner.
