Heavy defeat for Development Team

Bury Town Under 23's Development side fell to their second consecutive 0-5 away defeat, this time against a Barking side that took full advantage of the mistakes that the visitors made in the opening half hour. Opara opened the scoring in the 13th minute before L. James opened added a second for the hosts in the 16th minute.

By the time R. Kadima scored Barking's third goal after 21 minute the game was beyond Bury and it was about damage limitation in the second half. L. James added his second after 63 minutes and then hit his hat-trick in the 71st minute to round off a comprehensive win for the home side. Bury were left to rue a first half littered with dreadful mistakes and will hope to put things right when Greenwich Borough are the visitors to the Denny Bros Stadium on Sunday 14th October, kick off 1:00pm.
