IT WAS a case of deja vu for Great Harwood boss Denis Underwood as Brigg Town once more proved to be his bogey team.
Last year in the FA Vase, Brigg knocked Harwood out in a replay after the Showground side had run them close.
And it was the same this year, this time in the extra preliminary round of the FA Cup.
After a 2-2 draw on Saturday, Underwood was confident his side could at last get one over on Brigg last night -- the team who inflicted a 3-0 defeat on Underwood's Clitheroe in the FA Vase final at Wembley in 1996.
It was goalless at full-time at the Showground and the game ran into extra-time.
With just six minutes on the clock, Brigg's Drayton popped up to score what turned out to be the winner -- hanging on for the win with Underwood just hoping he doesn't draw them again in the Vase this year.
RESULT: GREAT HARWOOD...0 BRIGG TOWN...1 (aet)
