Yorkshire Coast Football Sides Pre-Season Latest

Scarborough Athletic and Bridlington Town closed their pre-season preparations a week before their competitive fixtures start.

Whitby Town, however, start a week later, on August 13th, the Blues came from behind to draw 2-2 with National North Darlington at the Towbar Express Stadium, on Saturday.

Just after the hour mark, the visitors added a fourth but Bridlington weren’t going to go down without a fight, however, pulling one back just two minutes later through a Jack Bulless header.

Thompson spoke to Brid Town TV's Kev Grantham post-match:
