As Bridlington Town come towards the end of what has been an incredibly busy schedule, they’ll host Newton Aycliffe in the Northern Premier League tonight at the Mounting Systems Stadium.
It’s been a mixed week for Denny Ingram’s side, who responded to a disappointing 5-2 defeat against Ossett United by beating Heaton Stannington 1-0, with Nathan Dyer’s early strike the difference between two.
Attacker and assistant manager Michael Coulson said:
“It was a really good professional performance after what happened on Tuesday night.”
Unfortunately, injuries for the Newton Aycliffe game are a concern for the Seasiders. Captain Simon Heslop and vice-captain Josh Barrett have both been absent in recent weeks, as has Danny Earl. Tom Allan and Derry Robson were also both forced off injured against Heaton Stannington.
The Newton Aycliffe encounter is a rearranged fixture, which was postponed from last month due to cup commitments for the Newtonians.
They picked up a point on the road on Saturday, drawing 1-1 with Stocksbridge Park Steels. It’s been a solid campaign for them so far, having earned 26 points from 16 games. They sit 9th in the Northern Premier League East, whilst the Seasiders’ recent victory moved them up to 14th.
It was a bizarre game last time between Bridlington and Newton Aycliffe. The Newtonians took a 4-0 lead after 63 minutes, though the Seasiders pulled three goals back to get themselves back in the game from nowhere. However, it was Newton Aycliffe who scored the final goal of the game, to win 5-3.
The last time the two sides faced each other at Moore Lane, Lewis Dennison’s goal was cancelled out by Jake Petitjean as it finished 1-1.
