Briton Ferry v Newtown head-to-head

Briton Ferry and Newtown last met at Latham Park with two goals apiece for both sides in what was each sides first game of the 2024/25 Play-Off Conference. 

The Robins raced in to a two-goal lead through Aaron Williams and Jason Oswell in the first 23 minutes but Corey Hurford pulled a goal back in the first minute of stoppage time. Experienced striker Luke Bowen equalised in the 69th minute with the spoils shared.

Newtown came out on top in the first clash between the two sides with Aaron Williams scoring the only goal of the game in a 1-0 win in September. Ferry got their revenge in December at Old Road with Andy Dyer’s men coming from behind to win. Williams scored again against Ferry but Corey Hurford equalised and Jasper Payne scored a late winner after Ryan Pryce had been sent off.
