Beverley Town FC’s manager Rich Jagger was pleased with the day’s work, he said;

“We put in another good performance against Hornsea Town. It was hard to single anyone out, but Craig Muirhead being skipper today and getting a hatrick was excellent.”

“The lads at the back did well, Max Thomas had his best game for a long time, and Stu Oliver and Jordan Organ ran the midfield.”

“We have another tough game midweek at Cranny against Hessle Rangers, but the lads are full of confidence and we hope to put a bit of a run together.”
Muirhead ‘s hat-trick include two spot kicks and smart finish from close range following some good build up play by Beverley.

Over all Beverley could have made this result even more comfortable though were guilty of missing opportunities, including a Joe Norton header from just 5 yards out.
