𝗙𝗨𝗟𝗟 𝗧𝗜𝗠𝗘 | A sigh of relief after two late goals brought Marske right back into the game. The lads held their nerve, just about, and saw the game out to win back-to-back games for the first time this season.

Merry Christmas ya filthy animals.

𝗛𝗔𝗟𝗙 𝗧𝗜𝗠𝗘 | A scintillating opening 45 from the lads here and it's fair to say we should be going in at the break more than three goals to the good. Hopefully more to come in the second half.

𝗙𝗨𝗟𝗟 𝗧𝗜𝗠𝗘 | A brilliant second half display from the lads sees us come from behind to score three without reply, Nick Marley grabbing his first(?) Birtley hattrick, I think.

Credit to Crook who put in a great shift throughout.
