Over 65s team looked balanced and performed well in the league

There was no need to check a weather App before this game; as I approached HeyFlood, it was raining. It was nice to see several Bury supporters had turned up in the rain, to follow and support their team. Following a safety announcement from the league officials, the games got underway. Bury Relics did not play and had some time to prepare and visualize their game plans, as the other 4 teams were playing each other. The first fixture up for the Relics was a tough one, against Corinthians.

In summary; from my perspective, it was an excellent performance from the Bury over 65s side. The team looked balanced, and players complemented each other to produce several good goals and quality play throughout. The only slight downside was that both goals were conceded following freekicks. The staff and supporters did a sterling job organizing and encouraging the team in the rain, and thanks to Kodak Keith for his photos. Manager and staff: Ken B, Keith S and Keiren. Team players: Teddy Eddy (GK), Alan, Peter S, Jomo, John W and Graham. Top secret subs were Keith H and Pat the Cat, who were ready to go on if needed. Report and Videos by Dr. John.
