Concord management duo Danny and Nicky Cowley at Sutton. PIC: ANDY SMITH.

NICKY COWLEY started his tenure as Concord’s assistant manager as they were held to their second draw in a row in front of a good Non League Day crowd of 628 at Sutton, writes Alan Jessup-Peacock.

Nicky took his place in the dug out alongside older brother and first team manager Danny Cowley as the Beachboys made an impressive start with Gary Ogilvie and Jordan Chiedozie both going close early on.

And those two combined to give the visitors the lead early in the second half.

Ogilvie led an attack down the left and put the ball through to Chiedozie who left two defenders in his wake before slamming the ball into the roof of the net.

And things got worse for the hosts when debutant Glen Southam was dismissed for his second yellow card.

But it only appeared to spur Sutton on and they capitalised on Concord switching off to equalise.

Half time sub Jessy Reindorf fired a shot low and hard past Jamie Butler after a quick counter to level against the run of play.
