THE ‘Rockies’ dropped two Wessex League points when a late Caleb Neale goal salvaged a point for the Islanders in a thrilling draw at Coppice Street.
Luke Delaney thumped a shot past visiting keeper Ed Hatt to put Shaftesbury ahead in the 26th minute before Cowes hit back when Jake Watson slid in to convert a Fin Philips free-kick.
Without Gary Bowles and Cam Beard to eliminate the aerial threat, the visitors sensed they could put pressure on James Mayo’s goal.
The ‘Rockies’ are rebuilding under Luke Middlewick, and Liam Farrugia and later Jack Smith made league debuts.
Ash Pope put Shaftesbury ahead from the spot after referee Rob Harrison adjudged a handball, much to the consternation of the Islanders, but Cowes came back when Jez Conway levelled the scores.
The experienced Sam Lanahan looked to have won it for Shaftesbury, finishing from an angle following a good move, and another substitute on debut, Tyler Allan Forbes, caused the visitors problems before Neale rescued a point for Cowes a minute from time.
