Brighouse’s costly penalty miss
Brighouse Town’s first ever appearance in the FA Trophy, non-league football’s elite knockout competition, ended in disappointment yesterday.
Paul Quinn’s side, who played in the FA Vase prior to last season’s promotion to the Evo Stik Northern Premier, were beaten 1-0 at home by Ossett Town.
The pair are 13th and 14th in Division One North and are yet to meet this season.
