BRIGG FOOTBALLERS ARE THE TALK OF THE TOWN AFTER ANOTHER GOAL GLUT


Brigg Town Football Club is the talk of the town following another thumping win yesterday (Saturday, September 4) which saw TWO Brigg players net hat-tricks.
The Zebras, who defeated fellow championship-chasers Nostell Miners Welfare 7-0 at the EC Surfacing Stadium (Hawthorns), are top of ToolStation Northern Counties East Division One and on course for life in the top flight in 2021/22.
Yesterday's match attracted a bumper attendance of 314, which was the biggest in 14 fixtures played in both divisions of the competition - the next best crowd being 197.
Town have a two-point lead at the top of the table, and their goal difference has blossomed over recent weeks to a very impressive +22 (double that of second-placed Selby).
Brigg Town FC is enjoying a real purple patch with successive wins since late August of 7-2, 7-3, 4-0 and now 7-0.
The club's cracking run and goal-scoring achievements proved to be talking points in a number of licensed premises across Brigg last night, in addition to their own Hawthorns bar.
Yesterday's hat-trick achievers were Dale Hutson and Scott Phillips, with Andrew Taylor also on target. The Zebras were four up by half-time. 

Brigg Town FC and its followers will also be heartened by two successive clean sheets, showing that the defence it also in fine form.
