INDOOR UPDATE

Week four of the Back’O’TheNet Brigg Indoor Football League, held at Vale of Ancholme Sports Hall, Grammar School Road, and sponsored by The White Hart, produced more top quality football on a night where Brigg Alliance held on to top spot by the skin of their teeth. Trailing 2-0 to The Marras through goals from Phil Cole and Joe Hastings with time running out, The Marras had a great opportunity to put the game to bed when they were awarded a penalty, but they couldn’t take advantage and this proved costly as Alliance turned the screw and forced home two late goals through Jamie Rodgers and Michael Clements to snatch an unlikely point. The Aces took advantage as they slammed three past depleted Benchwarmers, but they didn’t have things entirely their own way as Marley Davis cancelled out Kev Goodson’s early goal. But The Aces finished strongly and added two more through Tom Morwood and another from the excellent Goodson to move them ominously into second place. Grumpy Old Men recorded their first win of the season following a narrow 1-0 win over Dynamo Chicken Kiev. In an excellent game of football that ebbed and flowed, Stuart Tindall managed to grab the only goal of the game to send the ‘Old Men’ into raptures and condemn Kiev to the foot of the table. Finally, Brigg Fire Station grabbed their first points of the season following a thrilling 3-3 draw with Hardly Athletic. Dave Jenkinson notched his second goal of the campaign and Darren Britcliffe added two more to his rapidly rising tally for Hardly, but they weren’t enough to snatch victory as an impressive brace from Will Davison, added to a second goal of the season for Brigg Fire’s Craig Dawson, ensured the honours were shared.
