Poor defending by Darlington cost them a much needed victory as they drew 3-3 at home to Shrewsbury.

All three of Shrewsbury's goals came via slack marking as the visitors utilised the pace of Luke Rodgers who scored one and was a constant thorn in Darlington's side.

Ian Woan opened the scoring for Town before Quakers levelled on the stroke of half-time through Barry Conlon.

Two minutes into the second half Ian Clark gave Quakers the lead but that advantage lasted just three minutes as Rodgers shrugged off the attentions of Mark Kilty to equalise.

Rodgers set up Shrewsbury's third when his goalbound effort was blocked on the line by Craig Liddle only for Steve Jagielka to stab home.

After a period of constant pressure Darlington deservedly earned a point when Richard Hodgson was played though and his low shot hit the back of the net to earn Tommy Taylor's men a point.
