A clean sheet! With Matt Clarke suspended, McCall drafted in the on loan Tom Clarke as his replacement, and for the first time in weeks we looked a decent defensive unit. I was once again impressed by the youngster O'Brien, who looks to be gaining confidence, and has started to get forward more often. A dull first half, in which Bury struck a post, and the usually deadly Thorne missed the simplest of chances, gave way to an excellent second, both teams moving the ball from end to end. Daley began to terrorise the Shakers rearguard, but we weren't getting the rub of the green, and with time running out, a scoreless draw looked to be the likely outcome. But with five minutes left, the Bantams won free kick from fully 25 yards out. Lee stepped up to take the free kick and lashed it against the bar......
Baz Watch-...as the ball flew up in the air, Super Baz, on as a 75th minute substitute, flew towards the looping ball. We all expected our shaven headed hero to crash into the keeper, as did the Bury stopper himself, but instead, as if propelled by rocket powered boots, he flew skywards to nod the ball into the back of the net. For a brief second there was silence, as the crowd took in the magical feat they had just witnessed, before the place went mental. Even the stadium announcer revealed the scorer as "Super" Barry Conlon, as his name was chanted around Valley Parade. Get in Bazza..... 8/10
Pie Rating- Comes from the Shoutster, who passed judgement on a Meat and Potato pie. He said nothing much, but gave high praise to the mighty Chop Sauce, as he gave it an over inflated 7.5/10. He does admit to being something of a pie rookie, so his mark should be taken with a pinch of salt. Or a dollop of pepper, whatever you prefer.
