Bridlington Town’s first pre-season match of the 2021/22 season was played on home ground against south-of-the-Humber team Barton Town.
In a great game, with both teams creating good chances, the score-line could have easily finished 5-5 if both sides had put their chances away.
Barton’s Taron Hare opened the scoring on 4 minutes with a close range header from a corner.
Town’s player manager Brett Agnew levelled the game with a nice finish on 23 minutes.
The Seasiders had a great chance to win the game in the second half when Danny Earl was brought down in the area.
The referee didn’t hesitate in awarding the penalty, and up stepped Earl to take the penalty – but Barton’s keeper Charlie Dixon made an excellent save.
Man of the match: Fraser Papprill
Bridlington Town: James Hitchcock, A Trialist, A Trialist, Declan Parker, Benn Lewis, Fraser Papprill, A Trialist, Andy Norfolk, Brett Agnew, Danny Earl, Will Annan
