Bob Brodie Trophy: Asa Thomas regains top place with weekend double

Asa Thomas of Holyhead Town finished the weekend back at the summit of the Bob Brodie Trophy table after losing top spot on Friday night.

Steve Whittaker’s Friday night four-goal haul for Cemaes Bay put him at the peak on 17, but the following day Thomas played for Holyhead Town Reserves in a 7-6 win and netted twice to return to the pinnacle.

The Bob Brodie Trophy is an annual competition which rewards the top goal-getter in senior Anglesey football. It is named in honour of Bob, a former player and manager who lived in Holyhead and left us in 2011, but will always be remembered.
