Brigg did, however, have to come from behind for the second weekend in a row after conceeding after just three minutes from Lewis Bazley.

Nettleham 3 Lincoln United Reserves 4

Nettleham’s defensive woes were punished by a Lincoln United side who came into the game off the back of their first defeat of the season.

The in-form Jack Higginson scored twice, along with a goal from Adam Croft, but it wasn’t enough against The Whites who netted four times to take all three points in the Lincoln derby.

Ruston Sports 7 Spalding United Development 0

If their opening day defeat wasn’t already behind them, it’s certainly a distant memory now as Ruston Sports produced seven goals to see off bottom side Spalding United.

Last season’s top scorer, Alex Mackinder, opened his account for the season in his previous game and filled his boots with another four this time around.

Ben Sharpe scored for the second weekend in a row, whilst Callum Dye and Jake Read also found the back of the net.

It’s now four wins and three clean sheets on the bounce for last year’s champions.

Spalding are yet to pick up a point this season and find themselves propping up the table.
