Sticker 4 Bude 2
Sticker deservedly took all three points against a
lacklustre Bude performance. Sticker took the lead after 15 minutes, a
low cross from the right was met in the box by Chris Kitson who tucked
it away with ease and Kitson soon made it two nil, a ball wasn't cleared
from danger and his shot was initially blocked, fell to him again to
shoot and again blocked, but he wasn't closed down for his third attempt
and this time made no mistake sticking it in the bottom right corner.
Budes Dan Starkey picked up a yellow card for a late challenge in the
box resulting in a penalty which keeper Gary Dinshaw saved well to his
left. Bude pulled one back when Robbie Pearce headed a deep cross back
across the edge of the box and young Adam Smith struck a superb volley
in to the top right corner. Sticker went three one up with Kitson
netting his hat trick and Bude looked to be out of it, however after 65
minutes they pulled one back, Tommy Statton hitting a low left foot shot
just outside the box in to the bottom right corner. Bude suddenly looked
like they could rescue something from the game but were then reduced to
10 men when Starkey argued about a free kick and he received his second
yellow of the game. Bude were on the back foot again and Sticker won a
second penalty after a foul by Budes Liam Faid but again Sticker missed
from the spot. Minutes later though they did increase that lead Craig
Wood heading in at the back post with Bude players just standing and
watching and the three points were wrapped up.
