PROMOTION PUSH: BRIGG TOWN FC LEAP UP FOUR PLACES


Brigg Town Football Club's first teamers are now fourth in the table and occupying one of the end-of-season promotion play-off places.
The Zebras moved up four places with a home victory last night (Wednesday).
They defeated Beverley 3-1 in a Toolstation Northern Counties East Division One game at the EC Surfacing Stadium.
Kevin Kahoussi put Brigg in front with an early goal, to which Martin Pembleton and Dayle Hutson added as half-time approached.
Beverley reduced the arrears in the second half, but Brigg secured all three points.
There was another good-sized crowd to watch the Zebras in action - the official attendance being 286.
The top team in Division One at the end of the season will gain automatic promotion.
The sides finishing second, third, fourth and fifth will meet in semi-finals and then a play-off final to decide who else advances into the top flight for 2023/24.
Brigg Town Development have a home cup-tie tonight (Thursday, September 29).
They will be hosting Barton Old Boys Reserves in the Lincolnshire League Challenge Cup. Kick off time is 7.45pm.
Admission to watch the tie costs £3 (adults), £2 (concessions) and is free for the under-18s. The Hawthorns clubhouse will be open, with refreshments available.
