MEMORABLE MOMENT

By Gary Smith, long-serving Brigg Town opening batsman

Can you remember when several stray cows were seen running up and down the lane above the playing field at Haxey when Brigg Town CC were playing there? During play two rather large Friesians came charging across the outfield chased by a local farmer towards the car park where Mr and Mrs Willerton were watching ‘our Martin'. Mrs Willerton made a hasty retreat to the car and didn’t emerge from there for the rest of the game.

NF adds: Yes, I remember this incident well. It went down in Brigg Town CC folklore.
