Bury

Can agree with f19, especially the comments about Gornell. CB's played with great resillience today, well done Sunbed & Longy . Not a great game but this time we get the points and a clean sheet. Pleased for Proccy too, today , who outplayed that miserable cheat (no 19) who got him sent off at Gigg Lane in October


PS What do you call Ricky Ponting holding a bat ?..............a vet :D

Although there was little or no reminder of the football played in the Chesterfield fixture, I thought it was a good match. It was a close battle of a game where hard work and perseverance won it for us in the end.

The pitch was extremely heavy which made it almost impossible to get our passing game going and made the running ten times harder. How Gornell kept going on that pitch in his third game in a week is beyond me. Thought Dean Winnard put in a performance equally deserving of the man of the match award, but I can't fault Gornell.

We could've let the game peter out into a bore draw but we kept patiently pressing and making chances. Very proud of the lads for that. Great win.

And we scored from a McConville corner! Cor blimey!
 
Not a classic but a good three points. Razor didnt look match fit and nothing came off for him. Thought Long and Edwards were star men. Good job Bury didnt turn up guns blazing cos we didnt play like we did in the last game.All the same 3 points in the bag.
 
According to the bury web site we have had a similar start to 2011
Accrington lost on new years day at morecombe, and a good draw against chesterfield, obviously understimated us :rolleyes:
 
I couldent care less what Merson thinks to be honest, the bloke is a fool.

As for the game, the pitch was the winner which is a shame, but a great crowd in, with the Shakers bringing a great following as normal.

Thought Edwards & Long where superb again.

Quite why they took off their best player Andy Haworth was a strange one but ill have that :)

1-0 scrappy win?? Ill take it every time :

Roll on Cheltenham on Saturday
 
andy howarth and deano played at blackburn together from the age of 10 ! ,upto the age of 16 he was the golden child,and had fantastic natural ability.He lost his way when he had to leave home and move into the academy lodgings,glad to see him starting to build a career as along with david holliet,he was the best young player i saw play.
 
Must say I was relieved when he was subbed as he looked the one Bury player who could do us some damage. Cheers, Mr. Knill
 
Agreed Howarth's got loads of potential. What Knill should have done is took Jones off on the other side move Howarth over and moved Ajose wide into Howarths position. My big problem with Knill is that hes got no plan B and is subs rarely make a difference.
 
I think Stanley have found a secret weapon in their search for goals !
Take a look at the photo in the match report on the Stanley website

Proccy obviously had a spare match ball concealed under his shirt, ready to knock into the net if Jacobson's header missed the target.
This tactic could save a fortune in transfer fees.
