Bude travelled to Morley Rangers on Sunday 6th Nov. In lovely conditions,
Bude fielded a strong and determined squad and it showed as they dominated
from the start.  Steph Haydon defended by example and with Leanne Stanbury
and the 2 Bry's in her line, it was a huge task for Morley.  Bude should
have gone ahead several times in the first half, Anita Symons controlled the
left wing, Sarah Badham made some excellent crosses that were just sent
wide, and the Morley keeper showed safe hands from many other one on one
chances. Against the run of play, the home side scored first, a strong
driving run from Chynna Evans finding the net.  However Bude kept focused
and it was another Badham corner that was headed in by Dani Salt to level.
Full of spirit Bude looked lively and some neat play from Leona Marsh,
Lindsey Ubly and Bryher Smeeth was admired from the crowd.
The second half remained with Bude and it was a Bryonie Lapham cross that
was taken down and placed by Sarah Badham to take the lead. Tegan Nichols
kept battling for Bude and further chances were created and almost
celebrated.  However, Morley broke through once more and although dubiously
offside, Evans made it 2-all through sheer tenacity.  Bude wanted this win
and drove on, with 5 minutes to go another Badham cross found Mandy Bickle
unmarked and her left foot shot sealed the win 2-3.
