But against the run of play Shamrocks took the lead after a defensive mix up and this gave them a spring in their step.
Albion were then two down after the break after poor marking from a set piece, tactical substitutions re-energised Stanningley and they got a lifeline when Smith netted from a seemingly impossible angle.
Driven on by the irrepressible Hardaker, Albion drew level 5 minutes from time when Cullen cooly finished from an intelligent Mulligan cross.
Man-of-the-match: Curtis Hardaker.
Goals: Smith, Cullen.
