Toolstation League: Heath go top as Brislington can only draw
Cadbury Heath climbed to the top of the Premier Division with a home win over Bridport as previous league leaders Brislington were held to a draw at Longwell Green.
Nick Dyer scored the only goal of the game against the Dorset side as Heath moved to the head of affairs on goal difference with a 1-0 win.
Brislington took a one-goal lead into the interval at Longwell Green courtesy of an own goal, but that was just the prelude to a stirring second half.
The visitors had captain Jason Hughes sent off ten minutes after half-time and then had goalkeeper Chris Humphries dismissed as well, giving the hosts a penalty.
