BRIGG TOWN BATSMAN CRACKS DOUBLE CENTURY

The sporting talk of the town this weekend is a double century by Matthew Bell, batting for Brigg Town at the Recreation Ground yesterday against a visiting team from Hull.
We reckon his 204 not out was the highest score ever made for the club in 39 years.
Saturday’s team total of 320 for six, from 40 overs, may well be a Brigg best.
Going from memory, Dale Coy made 160-plus for Brigg in a home game a few years ago.
Back in the late 1970s, Dave Foster scored 140 not out in an away friendly in Tadcaster, which stood as the club record for many summers.
