BRIGG TOWN FC ENJOY DIVISION'S BIGGEST CROWD OF THE DAY




Brigg Town Football Club, who drew 2-2  with  Retford Town yesterday (Saturday, September 30), are bottom of the league.
But the attendance - 190 fans, including some from North Notts - was comfortably the best of the day in the Toolstation Northern Counties East Division One.
Early goals from Cameron Hill and George Merrick put  Brigg  ahead but the visitors got back on level terms.
There's a tough-looking game coming up on  Tuesday (October 3) when the Zebras visit leaders Knaresborough Town.
On Saturday (October 7) Brigg will be away to Hallam (3pm).
Yesterday did not prove a good one for Brigg and district teams belonging to the EC Surfacing Ltd Scunthorpe & District Football League.
There were defeats for Briggensians and Barnetby United Reserves in the first round of the Tortank Barton Brotherhood Cup.
Despite goals from Ben Lingard, Phil Cole and Stuart Briscoe, Briggensians lost 4-3, after extra time, to Keadby WMC.
Added time was also required before New Holland Villa saw off  Barnetby United Reserves 3-2.
Barnetby's marksmen were Dave Jordan and Ben Hutchinson.
Harry Dunnion netted for Barnetby's first team in a 7-1 defeat by Shape Changers in the first round of the Carousel Hospital Cup.

We think about 12 Retford fans came by train, the issue of the train from Brigg to Retford leaving at 1908pm was an issue more didnt come.
