The Shaymen played well in the first half and striker Simon Parke scored his two goals the first header at the 13 minute mark and his second header at the 15 minute mark. Yeovil came back strong in the second half with Goals by Kevin Gall in the 51st and 56 min. In the 85 minute Mark Monington was sent off for his second yellow of the match. The game winner was scored off a poor back pass by Shaun Garnett.  The result leaves Halifax Town in the seventh position with 9 matches remaining. Point wise the Shaymen  have 55 the same as Hereford United in 6th and Morecambre in the 5th position. The point goal differential  is what separates the teams.
