League Two Results 12th December

Barnet 1-2 Crewe Alexandra
Alex Tichener was on Crewe’s bench for the first time since I’ve been doing these blogs. He stayed on the bench the whole time but it’s great for the 18 year old just to be part of the matchday squad.

Chesterfield 1-0 Cheltenham Town
I told you didn’t I Chesterfield? Play Mark Crossley in goal. And it worked – a win and a clean sheet for Chesterfield. Cheltenham’s Josh Low probably isn’t quite so happy with me but he isn’t a bad goalkeeper himself, going by his goal-line clearance.

Dagebnham & Redbridge 3-1 Bury
A good win for Dagenham at last. Goalkeeper Tony Roberts didn’t get a clean sheet but they still one by two clear goals. Daniel Nardiello scored in the second minute of first-half stoppage time. It was Daniel’s fourth goal in six games but sadly it wasn’t what you might call a matcwinner. Dagenham scored too many goals for that. Still, Dagenham were probably glad to see Daniel substituted after 73 minutes. I just hope he isn’t injured…

Morecambe 5-0 Bournemouth
Joe Partington apparently isn’t in full training for Bournemouth yet following an injury but that did not stop him from coming off the bench for Bournemouth – but with just four players on the bench the manager didn’t have a lot of choice. It seemed to help though. Morecambe only scored one goal after Joe came on.

Northampton Town 1-1 Port Vale
Northampton’s Peter Gilbert was taken off after 56 minutes so I hope he’s okay. Gareth Owen was back following his cheek operation but he didn’t score. Both the goals in this game were penalties.
