Kieran Weledji's 95th-minute strike rescued a point for Scarborough Athletic on Saturday.
The versatile former Whitby Town man struck deep into injury time to grab a 1-1 draw for Boro at home to play-off chasing Stafford Rangers.
The Seadogs had fallen behind in the first half after a less-than-impressive display.
However the point keeps Jono Greening's men fourth in the NPL Premier:
Whitby had a welcome win, with the turning point, at Witton Albion coming when Albion's keeper was sent off for handling outside his penalty area.
It was the second time in three games this had happened against the Seasiders and just like against Bamber Bridge, two weeks earlier, they took advantage.
The NPL Premier's leading goalscorer Jacob Hazel netted first around the hour mark and on-loan Hartlepool United winger Josh MacDonald doubled Town's advantage, late on, for a comfortable 2-0 win that keeps them sixth in the table:
Blues joint boss Lee Bullock told Whitby Town's Media & Communications Manager Liam Ryder that the performance was everything last week's loss was not:
Bridlington Town had goalkeeper James Hitchcock and his defence to thank after a battling 0-0 draw with Stocksbridge Park Steels in NPL East.
Brid remain in danger at the wrong end of the table but a string of Hitchcock stops ensured they took a point from the Hudgell Solicitors's Stadium.
Manager Brett Agnew spoke to Brid Town TV after the game:
