BRIGG TOWN FOOTBALL CLUB: HOW THE PROMOTION PLAY-OFFS WILL OPERATE

Brigg Town Football Club's first teamers need to finish in the top FIVE this season.
In Toolstation Northern Counties East Division One, promotion will be decided in the Spring as follows:

• The top team will gain automatic promotion to the Premier, with the four below them qualifying for the play-offs...
• Second-placed team at home to the fifth.
• Third-placed team at home to the fourth.
• A final involving the two winning teams will then follow on the ground of the side which finished highest in the table.The winner of the play-off final will go up alongside the Division One champions.
• The bottom two in the top flight will be relegated.

Brigg Town are currently third in the table, but not far behind Hallam (the leaders) and North Ferriby. Harrogate Railway are fourth, with Selby Town fifth.
Brigg still have 14 league games to play in the 2021/22 season - the last round of Division One fixtures being on April 9.
The Zebras are currently 13 points ahead of the sixth-placed side.
Goal difference might well prove a factor at the end of the season - being used as a decider if teams finish level on points.
Hallam (+69) are currently the only team with a better goal difference than Brigg (+62).
Ferriby are +39, Harrogate +25 and Selby +18.
Brigg Town are away to Nostell Miners Welfare this afternoon (Saturday, January 22). The club's reserve side, known as Brigg Town Development, will host Nettleham at the EC Surfacing Stadium (Hawthorns) today in the Balcan Lighting Supplies Lincolnshire League Premier (3pm KO).
