Bantams 3 Magpies 0

Strewth, an easy victory, over the worlds oldest, and on this performance most woeful, professional team. If not for their keeper, and some wayward shooting, this could have been embarrassing. Peter Thorne was the undoubted star turn, scoring a well executed hat trick ( I missed the last goal as Ike needed a slash, seems a pattern is developing). So it is off to Rochdale on Saturday with Crespo, The Boy and Aki, to see if we can start gaining some momentum for a play off push. That is all there is really left to say, as the game wasn't really any great shakes. As I mentioned at the beginning of this report County made little of the match. Once again there is no food rating, have been through the menu, but next week we will be putting Rochdales famous pies to the test.


Baz Watch;

Played full 90 minutes, wearing, as ever, his go faster stripped white boots. A masterly display of the art of the big target man, but yet again proved mortal in front of goal. his first effort was a good save, but he was one on one with the keeper and should have done better (according to Crespo, Ike needed a slash, again). The second half proved no more fruitful for our shiny headed hero. Twice he found himself in space in the box, only to have his usual Brazilian like skills fail him, as he appeared to be penalised both times for hand ball. But he ran the County centre halves ragged, his dying swan to win numerous free kicks, is truly a sight to behold.
