Under any other circumstances a share of the spoils with a Forest Green Rovers side mounting a late challenge for a play-off place would be regarded as decent, especially as the Shaymen had to come from behind.

See the slide show from the game.

What is clear is that Halifax would benefit with a little more steadiness in the final third of the field in their remaining games.
And a little more luck would not amiss either.
Having recovered from the shock of going behind to Danny Carey-Bertram's 75th-minute opener with a quick reply from Darryn Stamp, the Shaymen pressed for a winner.
And in the third minute of stoppage time the opportunity came when the outstanding Anthony Griffith challenge Rovers keeper Terry Burton under the crossbar and the ball bounced loose.
With both players on the floor, Stamp struck on the volley, sending the ball goalwards only for Griffith to get up and block it on the line.
It was a bizarre moment but when things are not going for you it is just the kind of gross misfortune you have to overcome.
It should never have had to come to that for Town, who had enough good chances to have put the game to bed well before Rovers even got off the mark.
Andy Campbell latched onto a Jon Shaw touch as early as the sixth minute only to pull his right foot shot across the goal and wide.
And Simon Heslop almost got to Santos Gaia's deep clearance ahead of Burton, who just about managed to clear under pressure.
Campbell's downward header from Lewis Killeen's deep cross failed to trouble the keeper and when Shaw controlled a Tom Kearney free kick 10 yards from goal and turned he would not have expected to blast his shot high over the bar.
All that happened in the opening 15 minutes, during which time Forest Green were restricted to a couple of poorly taken free kicks.
Danny Forrest pounced on a loose ball in midfield just before the half hour mark and raced towards the edge of the Rovers area before forcing a fine save from Burton.
Campbell got on the end of a great Kearney through ball moments later before being pushed wide on the right but still managed to get a shot away, only to see the ball roll across the line and a yard beyond the left hand upright.
Not until the 44th minute did Forest Green finally threaten to break the deadlock when Les Afful got free down the right and crossed for Carey-Bertram who was just about to pull the trigger when he was somehow dispossessed by Griffith and Craig Mawson cleared.
Rovers just about had the upper hand in the early stages of the second half with Afful twice failing to take chances from close range and Carey-Bertram denied by a fine Mawson save.
But Town had the ball in the net in the 62nd minute when Campbell fired home after Burton had saved a Heslop rocket one-handed, only to be denied by the linesman's flag.
The Shaymen appeared to be regaining the upper hand when Shaw got through a minute later after a poor clearance only to fire high and wide.
But it was Forest Green who finally broke the deadlock in the 74th minute when Simon Ainge, who had been impressive alongside Gaia, saw a clearance ricochet off a Rovers player straight into the path of Anthony Tonkin who rolled it across the area for Carey-Bertram to hit home.
Two minutes later Town were level when a Heslop free kick from the right found its way through to Stamp who fired home.
And Stamp had another chance four minutes later but shot over the top after a good move involving himself, Matt Doughty, Shaw and Campbell.
Heslop blasted too high before Town were denied an almost certain victory with Griffith's unwitting block from Stamp's late effort.
And even after that there was a real moment of drama in the final minute of time added on when the ball broke for Forest Green's Jonathan Smith on the right.
But Mawson, who had a relatively quiet afternoon, reacted quickly and raced from his line to save.

STAR SHAYMAN
Anthony Griffith has spent most of the season in central midfield but he showed his versatility on Saturday with an outstanding display at right back.
He had the pacy Ishmael Welsh in his pocket until the Rovers winger was substituted in the second half.
And his challenge to deny Danny Carey-Bertram a shooting chance on the stroke of half time was simply unbelievable with the Forest Green striker looking almost certain to open the scoring.
Simon Ainge has not played a lot of senior football, but you would never have known as he gave an assured display in the centre of Town's defence.
He was cool under pressure and made a number of important interventions whenever Forest Green pressed forward.
Craig Mawson had little to do for long spells but when he was called into action he acquitted himself well.
And his late, late save from Jonathan Smith ensured Town emerged with a share of the spoils.
Griffith takes three points in our season-long competition with Ainge getting two and Mawson one.

YOU SAY
100 per cent effort from the Shaymen. On another day we could have had 10 goals. Griffith outstanding - Chris Wilder has turned him into one hell of a player - the taxman

Their keeper is the luckiest man ever, Griffith superb. Stamp should have had a hat-trick but a nice return by scoring. Use SAME team for next match - The Turnbull

Too many players not at the races today or maybe that was where they were - daz

Plenty of effort, passion and desire. Defence solid. The worrying thing is both Shaw and Campbell had poor games. How many chances does Campbell miss? The bottom line is we are not good enough! - Jra.

Let's name and shame them - Shaw, Campbell, Heslop and even a sub, Doughty. All very poor and they should know it - mr d
