On Tuesday evening, The Brewers play their next NCEL Premier League game at home to Bridlington Town. Last season, the match at Tadcaster in January was a 1-1 draw with The Brewers' goal coming from Danny Gray who had recently joined the club from Selby Town. The attendance that day was 527. Bridlington Town were to end their NCEL Premier campaign last season in 8th place. They have had five top four finishes in the last seven seasons in the NCEL Premier.
The Seasiders have taken 9 points from their 6 games played so far this season, this includes 2 wins on the road at Staveley Miners Welfare and Thackley. Their other points were from a home win against Handsworth Parramore. They went out of the FA Cup at the first attempt as they went down 2-0 at home to last seasons FA Vase winners North Shields. At the weekend, Bridlington Town were beaten 3-1 at home by Nostell Miners Welfare. Former Brewers striker Lewis Clarkson has scored 4 times in the league so far this season to be in joint 2nd place in the goalscorers chart with a number of others including Josh Greening. The NCEL Premier leading goalscorer currently is Garforth Town's Mark Simpson with 6 goals. The Seasiders are currently in 8th place in the table. A home win on Tuesday will put Tadcaster back on top of the table and as we look to bounce back from our disappointment at the weekend, I will go for a 2-1 home victory.
