A big row, some thrown out and the complainant and her kids now in the new stand.

Bowman's done alright, running in the channels and made the keeper make a good save from his header. As others have mentioned though, despite us having a decent amount of possession around their box, the final ball has been lacking which means Bowman's been feeding off scraps.

Are we playing towards the Big Bank in the 2nd half - it always seems to make a difference..
We will be, yes.

Williams had a great start to the half, turning their defenders inside out at times. He has a couple tricks and flicks up his sleeve, he is also quite quick and has appears to have some final product too. Both teams have had their chances, Bury with a chance from about a meter out at the start of the game and a header at the end of the half. City came close with a Bowman header, but in general Burty have been very good at closing down and blocking our shots. We have had a load of corners and we should be doing a bit better with them. We got a bit sloppy with our passing towards the end of the half.

Bury's counter-attacks look very dangerous but if we are to win this we have to be brave and take advantage of the space that their wing backs leave in behind.

It's been a good game for a 0-0n with both teams playing good football in their own style. Bring on the second half.

. I'm very impressed with Collins and Taylor, they seem to click together well.
This is really important and good to hear

Aye. A wife, husband, their 8 kids against two old fellas. Some teenage lad jumped in and was chucked out. Von Trapp family moved into the doble, old blokes looked bemused.

Attendances seem to have bumped up a little recently - a result of recent good home form perhaps? I wonder how many of those that saw us play well against MK Dons came back for this one.

Michele Owen is up the scary, wobbly gantry earning bravery medals for her pluck. Wonder what our record is like when she's doing our games.
