Bury are trying to expose the flanks as we push up , their number 2 practically hugged the line from 25 mins onwards. Again that same defender number 27 arrived in the box with pace from a corner and caught Stanley asleep which went just over the bar around 38 mins. At the very end of the half bury again exploited Stanley s lack of pace and space down buxtons side but missed their chance again. A equal 1st half but bury should have taken one of their chances and Stanley need to rethink the tactics or close down the source of Burys passes to the left wing , as there is every chance Bury will not keep being so careless in the 2nd half. Buxton looks a lot more exposed than Winnard. Maguire and McCartan have done nothing while Joyce's decision making with the ball has been a second to slow.

You were obviously at a different match then. First 15 was all Bury. Time for the Messiah and you to go methinks (my opinion only). Buxton and Mingoia played well for me that is until Buxton was subbed due to another injury. Yes Stanley played with some passion especially in the last 20 minutes but it was same old same old. No height up front playing against a team of thugs (for want of a better word) fore arm tackles and rugby tackles have no place in football, yet Bury were getting away with it most of the night. Referee was poor IMHO. Could have and should have booked players and the goalscorer should not have been on the pitch again IMHO. I thought Maguire had a half decent game but until we have some height up front then we are not going to score. Why not try Hunt as centre forward, he can do no worse than the players who were up front tonight. Really annoyed because we did not deserve to lose, nor did we deserve to win either. Promotion, forget it, I think we are safe from relegation, but we are going to lose more than we win up until the end of the season unless things change rapidly.
