Champions Too Strong For Bury
Bury Grammar School Old Boys 1s 1-6 UCLAN 1s
On paper it appeares that, once again, the league leaders overpowered The Old Boys in comprehensive fashion. However, this was not as easy as it seemd for the newly crowned champions. For long periods of the game Bury held UCLAN at bay whilst again fashioning chances of their own.
The Old Boys' only goal of the game came when they had just gone two-nil down. A magnificent team goal, straight from the push back gave David Hodbod his eigth goal of the season and produced a contender for goal of the season.
With five minutes to go Bury had held the champions to a four - one scoreline. This may seem like a ridiculous statement, but at this point it seems reasonable to point out that UCLAN had averaged ten goals a game throughout the season.
