Bottom side Altrincham twice came from behind to earn a point against Grimsby.

After Danny Carlton had hit the bar, the Mariners deservedly took the lead when Peter Bore fired into the top corner from 18 yards.

Altrincham equalised when Chris Denham calmly slotted home after good work by James McCarthy.

Alan Connell's spectacular long-range effort looked to have given Grimsby all three points before Shaun Densmore levelled with an injury-time header.
