Report taken from "the Rugby Paper":-
Despite a valiant effort from home side Harrogate, Tynedale ran out winners to confirm Gate's relegation from National League Division 2 North.
The first half was evenly matched. In fact, the only score of the match came in the 18th minute when Tynedale moved the ball right and Alex Dryden crossed, with Jake Rodgers adding the conversion.
Harrogate started the second half on the attack and thought they had scored in the 44th minute but unfortunately for them, the ball was deemed held up and play was brought back for a penalty on the 22. Having kicked to the corner, Gate won the lineout and the ball was eventually moved to Rupert Scrase who got Harrogate's reward with an unconverted try.
However, Tynedale responded, and in the 57th minute Dryden crossed for his second try in the right hand corner. The conversion was missed but the visitors extended their lead in the 61st minute. That was down to some forward power from a five metre lineout which enabled James Telford to dive over for a try converted by Rodgers.
But all credit to Harrogate in a game they had to win as they never gave up. Ben Raubitschek took a quick penalty from 5 metres out and scored a try that Rory McNab converted.
But Tynedale nevertheless closed out the game with the final play of the match. Moving the ball quickly to the left, Seamus Hutton got their bonus-point try in the left hand corner.
The conversion was missed but this did not matter as Harrogate's fate was sealed.
