The hosts restored their lead five minutes into the second half only for Town to hit back almost immediately as Harry Hutt nodded home Sandell’s cross.

Dean and Hemming both had good chances before Rovers took the lead just before the break when the ball fell to Haylett and he buried it.

Rovers kicked off the second half trying to build on the lead but in the 64th minute North Walsham equalised from a loose ball and after a poor clearance they took the lead on 77 minutes.
