Walthamstow battled back from two goals down to earn a point at Lowfield against Hoddesdon Town, Kane Lowe netted a screamer to give the hosts the lead in first half stoppage time, and when a free-kick was headed back across goal and tapped in by Joss Lillis just past the hour mark, the hosts looked likely to go on and take the points. Flynn was then sent-off meaning the visitors were down to ten men however they kept fighting and with fifteen minutes remaining Dwade James headed one back and then barely a minute later Elias Siligato was slipped through and he rounded the keeper before slotting home to bring the scores level. Hoddesdon saw a red card late on too meaning it ended ten a side, and it also ended all square too.

Symeon Taylor did net a second for West two minutes from time but it was the Robins who took the spoils.
