The Seagulls suffered their first pre-season defeat as they lost 3-1 at home to Connah’s Quay Nomads after taking a first half lead against the Welsh Prem outfit.

A Joe Williams cross forced an own goal from George Horan to put Colwyn Bay in front, but Connah’s Quay equalised with with a close range finish by Aeron Edwards.

The Bay, however, impressed in the first half and skipper Tom McCready was unlucky not to restore their lead before half-time with an effort that came back off the woodwork.

The visitors, who had won 5-0 at Llandudno at the weekend, then took control in the second half as Aron Williams headed them in front from a great cross by Harry Franklin, and Ryan Harrington added a third with a free kick after he had been fouled.

The Bay’s final pre-season game is at home to Flint Town United on Saturday, July 23rd with a 2:30pm kick off.
