HARRIERS were "all White" as they produced a decent enough display to share the spoils in the Staffordshire-Worcestershire derby at The Lamb.

While most of Mark Yates's men put in improved performances following the previous weekend's Gravesend defeat, loanee Andy White stole the show with a masterclass in leading the line.

White grabbed the goal which earned Kidderminster a point with the first strike of his second short spell at Aggborough.

But it was the Notts County centre forward's tireless workrate, close control and all round hold up play which really caught the eye.

And had Harriers provided better service to the towering targetman in and around the area, they would surely have left The Lamb with all three points.

There was no doubting that the visitors were the better side and clearly provided most of the fluent football as opposed to Tamworth's more direct style of play.

Harriers were only let down by indecisive defending early on and a lack of ruthlessness in the final third throughout the match.

Credit to Kidderminster, however, for sticking to their task because their sizeable away following feared another off-day after just four minutes.

That was all it took for Mark Cooper's battlers to grab the lead from the first attack of the match and leave a Harriers side reeling.

There seemed to be no immediate danger when the Lambs aimed the ball down their right hand channel but Matthew Williams got the better of fill-in left back Michael Blackwood to plant a diagonal drive into the bottom left hand corner.

Without the steadying influence and experience of captain Daryl Burgess , young defensive duo Johnny Mullins and debutant Junior Osborne were forced to dig deep to overcome that setback.

In fairness to the central pairing, who also had makeshift full backs in Blackwood and Jake Sedgemore either side of them, they did improve as the game wore on and were much more commanding in the second half.

Harriers also got better as an attacking force after their early concession, even though the final ball or shot often failed to live up to the impressive approach play.

White served notice of his intent by rasping an effort into the sidenetting and forcing Sean Bowles into a smart save in the first 15 minutes, while the debutant keeper also blocked Sedgemore's shot through a crowd of legs.

Harriers rode their luck when Aggborough old boy Adie Smith headed wide from Nick Summerbee's free kick and John Danby produced a stunning one-handed save to halt Daniel Davidson's determined raid.

Smith also did well defensively, winning the sponsors' man of the match award, although he was lucky to go unpunished for an apparent tug of White's shirt in the box.

Terry Fleming, White and Lee Thompson then went close, while Harriers also failed to capitalise upon slack play by Summerbee.

Kidderminster, and White in particular, got their just reward on 49 minutes when they equalised with a carbon copy of Tamworth's opener.

Sedgemore sent the ball down the right flank and with another ex-Harrier, Scott Stamps, dithering, White stole in and whacked a low finish past Bowles.

Although there were a couple of sniffs at goal for Simon Russell and Gareth Sheldon, from then on clear cut chances were at a premium at both ends.

That is until the very last minute when Davidson spurned a golden opportunity to win it for the hosts when he swept a shot agonisingly wide of goal after bursting onto a long punt upfield.
