Leaders Bar OC scrambled a point against AFC Calne at Avebury.

It could have so different for the leaders Bar OC who had the first chance after eight minutes when striker Luke Enderby turned swiftly on Mikey O'Donnell's cross, his left footed drive from 15 yards was brilliantly turned away by Aaron Ward.

The resulting corner saw Luke Rudman head against the post and the resulting ball back in saw Enderby score his first league goal from two yards.

Bar OC went two up on 25 minutes when Rudman latched onto Darren Brown's through ball to slide home from 15 yards. Calne pulled one back ten minutes later when sloppy defending saw Ryan Kelleher free with the goal at his mercy, his clinical finish from ten yards left John Hampshire helpless. Straight away the visitors should have extended their lead.

Calne's Sam Parrish could only flick on a cross-field ball from O'Donnell and Enderby rolled the ball wide from the edge of the box. Two minutes later the same combination should have produced the third, again O'Donnell's cross was slid wide by the incoming Enderby. Danny Powell did finally extend the lead just before the break.

Darren Brown's through ball saw the quick footed striker skip past Parrish before guiding his shot into the bottom left corner.

The ever-threatening Kelleher nearly got a second for Calne but he was unable to guide his header on target following a great cross by Jason Matthews.

They show great character as first Stuart Deacon and then Justin Derby grabbed the goals that earned the draw.
