Game of two halves gives Bury first win of season

UEA 2’s vs Bury 2’s
On the first sunny day ever recorded in Norfolk the game began. Bury started by dominating the first half and preventing UEA even leaving their half. This domination was further solidified by 2 quick goals from Grisby before he decided he would try and take Hadley's head off which somehow resulted in Hadley putting the ball in the back of the net and providing the motivation for him to get his second, making that goal 3 and 4 for Bury. At this point UEA all seemed to remember the sport they were playing allowing them to get one back making the half time score 4-1.
The half time team talk mostly consisted of captain Sullivan reminding his troops not to do anything stupid to get sent off.
The second half began and both sides did lots of stupid things but the umpires seemed to have forgotten their cards allowing all players to stay on the pitch. UEA managed to get a second goal but with some help from Hadley refusing to put the ball in the goal and many aerials from Sully to M Chapman in a brilliant attempt to let the clock tick away, the score remained at 4-2 and the game ended. It was at this point Chapman Jr decided seeing his girlfriend was more important than match tees resulting in:
