Cables battled for a point at a drenched Nethermoor Park in this Unibond Premier League encounter.
Both sides attempted to pass the ball around in the testing conditions. Guiseley squandered the best opportunities in the first half, Hanson’s header clipping the crossbar the closest attempt.
Prescot was denied a penalty when the referee controversially awarded a free kick after Price was sandwiched between two defenders. Both sets of supporters disagreed with the decision.
The conditions and the referee were the deciding factors in the second period.
Guiseley’s defence was stretched when Eammon Price turned his marker that enabled McNutt to set up an marked Lee Smith whose goal bound shot was deflected for a corner.
Keeper Mottram was adjudged to have handled outside the area as he slid across the wet ground. Mike O’Donnell took over goalkeeping duties when Mottram received a straight red card.
In the 68th minute Guiseley took advantage when Hanson’s header sped into the net. Prescot then put the home side on back foot. Substitute Tommy Taylor raced through on goal only to be brought down in the penalty area. Ellis was sent off being the final defender. Thomas Moore stroked away the spot kick.
