CURRENT BRIGG TOWN SEASON NOW OVER BUT THE BEER GARDEN IS READY AND WAITING


Brigg Town Football Club's season is now officially over, although games were due to continue into May.
The Zebras had not played a first team match since Boxing Day in ToolStation Northern Counties East Division One - the programme being suspended shortly afterwards due to the Coronavirus emergency lockdown.
The league agreed some weeks ago to cancel the remainder of the 2020/21 campaign, but that decision needed ratifying by the Football Association at national level. An FA ruling confirming this course of action has now been announced.

However, unlike last season when NCEL games were declared null and void, all results will stand for 2020/21 which means Brigg have finished sixth in their section, having taken 20 points from 11 games. All teams were due to play 38 fixtures.
Looking ahead, the club and its playing staff, management and supporters will be hoping for a prompt start to the 2021/22 season with no Covid-related interruptions.
Meanwhile, along with other licensed premises, Brigg Town FC has the option to reopen its Hawthorns bar to serve drinks for consumption in the adjoining beer garden and outdoor seating area (pictured above) from April 12, in line with a relaxation of restrictions on pubs and clubs by the Government.
