Whitby Town Continue Perfect Start

Sunday, 20 August 2023 08:42

The Blues beat Marine on Saturday for their third successive win in NPL Premier.

The Blues took the lead, on 24 minutes, as left-back Coleby Shepherd drilled a low drive across goal and into the bottom left-corner.

They quickly added to the tie when Junior Mondal curled an unstoppable effort into the roof of the net from 20 yards.

It was three before the break when Connor Simpson's deflected header looped over the Mariners keeper for the big marksman second goal in as many games.

The Merseyside hosts pulled one back after a rare Shane Bland error saw the keeper caught in no man's land and beaten early in the second half.

Town will be eyeing Monday's FA Cup First Qualifying Round Draw ahead of Tuesday's NPL Premier clash at the Towbar Express Stadium, against Worksop Town.

We are a small locally owned and operated business which employs professional journalists and reporters. We do not receive any public funding or grants and we are entirely funded by our local commercial operations. We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.
