St. Margaretsbury V Haringey Borough

Today I am at St. Margaretsbury V Haringey Borough at Station Road
in the South Midlands Premier league.

I nearly  missed the ground as it is set in total darkness up a lane. 
Only distant training lights lured me up to investigate and lo and
behold   I find the ground by a fluke.

On entering the ground, there is a makeshift covered stand and terrace
set atop of grass banking.

Also situated here is a food and tea bar.  The other three sides are
railed off with hard standing with a river or canal running close to
the ground.

This entertaining game, was played at a very fast pace in the first
half.

'Bury' were 2 goals down in 15 minutes as they failed to deal with the
long ball over the top.
Darrell Cox was the scorer of both goals for Haringey.

Leigh Rose got a goal back for 'Bury' after some slick interchanging
moves.

Half Time 1 - 2
Haringey were defending for most of the second half and had a player
sent off  for committing 2 bookable offences.

9 bookings altogether made this a hot tempered match.

Final score 1 - 2

Attendance 22

Programme free with admittance  - very good

Food and drinks available

Final Note:  The pre-match and half time country and western music was
the most depressing I have ever heard at a football match.
