The goals are flowing in Anglesey senior football and that means the race to finish top scorer on the island is underway.

The 12th season of the Bob Brodie Trophy has started and there is a familiar name heading the leaderboard.

Last season’s Trophy winner, Asa Thomas of Trearddur Bay, became the first player representing a club on Anglesey to reach double figures in 2023-24 this weekend.

Named after a well-known footballer and manager from Holyhead via Glasgow who sadly passed away in 2011, the Bob Brodie rewards the leading netfinder on Ynys Môn every season.
