TOWN had to make do with a point after Carlisle substitute Ben Marshall sidefooted an 83rd-minute equaliser.
The 18-year-old chalked up his first goal for the Cumbrian club from close range after Matty Robson crossed from the left.
Town had led through Anthony Pilkington's 50th-minute header from Gary Roberts' cross.
Pilkington had a great chance to clinch victory late on, but his shot from Danny Drinkwater's pass was saved.
