Brigg Town cricketers won first game since joining the West Wold Evening League - and by a very convincing margin against Glentham at the recreation ground last night.
The visitors brought along a depleted side and Brigg set a huge 180-run target, which was well beyond them.
The standard of teams in this competition is very wide indeed, and the Brigg lads never seem sure whether the next game is going to be tough or easy.
Next Tuesday they visit Market Rasen. On paper, that could be a tough one.
Following last night's match, many of the Glentham 'seniors' joined the Brigg team at the Nelthorpe Arms for a few drinks, including the West Wold League president.
One of their number, it was revealed, used to work at Brigg sewage works alongside Eric 'Banger' Drayton, legendary 'fixer and helper' at Brigg Town Football Club's Hawthorns HQ, over many years, when Harry Williams was ruling the roost.
