Bridlington Town Hit By Postponement as Busy Schedule Increases

Bridlington Town were due to take on Consett AFC in the NPL East at the Belle Vue Stadium.

The Seasiders have had five weeks in a row of games on Saturdays and midweek, and as such have accumulated a number of injuries, with Simon Heslop, Josh Barrett, Danny Earl and Tom Allan all sidelined and due to see physio Josh Hairsine this week.

Most recently, Bridlington have had three home games in the space of seven days. They picked up a disappointing 5-2 defeat against Ossett United, who at the time were bottom of the league.

It was a great response, however, as the Seasiders beat Heaton Stannington 1-0 just four days later, though it was then a 2-0 midweek defeat against Newton Aycliffe.

Liam Adamson came off the bench for Newton Aycliffe, and his two goals were the difference between the two sides.

Reflecting on the game, Denny Ingram said:

“The performance, in large parts, was there. We need to be better in front of goal, more clinical in front of goal.”

He added:

"It's a hard one to take tonight, it's frustrating, disappointing, because we should've been better."

The Consett game adds to that busy schedule after it was postponed on Saturday morning.
