Rochdale Supporters Game Report Bury B vs Rochdale NW CUP QF 22:09 - Feb 2 with 1684 viewsPaulH84

For anyone who is interested!

Game started off badly for us going 1 nil down to a poorly judged defensive header and a good finish from the bury forward.

We got an equaliser not long after with a well flighted free kick finding Jack Forshaw at the back post to tap in. 1-1.

Both teams were fighting hard for control of the match but we got a break down the right our right winger took a shot which their keeper parried and Paul Hudson drilled home to make it 1-2.

As was the balance of play Bury carved out many chances for themselves and went up the other end to equalise with a well taken finish from the left of the penalty box.

Bury conceded a penalty late in the 1st half and Jack Forshaw saw his penalty run wide of the right post.

HT: 2-2

The second half started brightly for dale. Two quickfire goals at the start of the first half from Jack Forshaw and Kyle Davies saw us stretch our lead before constant Bury pressure on our back four showed with a good move from a corner finding the back of the net. 3-4 was the comeback on?

Dale stretched their lead out to 3-5 following a mix up between the Bury left back and their keeper with Kyle Davies on hand to tap home his 2nd of the day.

As ever Bury heads weren't down and they forced a poor back pass from one of the Rochdale defenders and pounced on the chance. 4-5.

Tricky work from the right of the box by Luke Walsh saw him felled by the Bury centre half inside the box. The ref gave a foul and a penalty. Truth be told Rochdale needed this 2 goal cushion as the Bury front line were carving out good chances consistently.

Kyle Davies stepped up and scored. But the ref disallowed it due to him not having blown the whistle to take it. Kyle stepped up again and got his hattrick putting the ball the same way and rippling the net.

Chances came and went for either side but the ref called time to an entertaining game and Rochdale progressed to the Semi Final of the North West Cup 4-6.

Rochdale Team: Adam Stott, Iain Murray, Jack Leeming(c), Rhys Wolstenholme, Joe Ralphs, Jack Forshaw, Luke Walsh, John Barton, Liam Jennings, Kyle Davies, Paul Hudson Subs: Paul Smith-Markl.

I'm going to try and raise the profile of the supporters team by posting reports from our matches. Hopefully the above hasn't bored you all to death and you will take more interest in the lads who always carry the good image and reputation of the club into every game.
