League Two Results 21st August 2010 Part 1

Accrington Stanley 3-0 Macclesfield Town
I thought Macclesfield Town would finish in the bottom two this season and they’re certainly in the bottom two now. Accrington are unbeaten this season.
Sam Wedgbury played his first complete game for Macclesfield.

Burton Albion 3-2 Morecambe
Last season, Burton had a good start and then tailed off while Morecambe put together a great run towards the end and got into the play-offs. This season looks similar, which should be some comfort for Morecambe fans. Morecambe were winning 2-1 but Burton came back to take the points.
Tony James was back on the bench for Burton. Morecambe had the sense to play their own Welsh defender, Darren Moss, who got the assist for their first goal.

Bury 1-1 Northampton Town
Northampton took the lead at Bury through a penalty and although Bury equalised, Northampton held firm and doubled their points tally for this season.
Paul Walker was on the bench for Northampton.

Chesterfield 4-0 Hereford United
Hereford’s start to the season hasn’t been too bad but promotion contenders Chesterfield, now in second place, were too much for them on this occasion.
Ryan Valentine usually takes great penalties and he did on this occasion but the goalkeeper made an impossibly good save. Chesterfield were only winning 2-0 at the time. To quote various commentators, the score would have been different if that had gone in. Without a doubt. Not the way Ryan was hoping to celebrate his 300th Football League appearance.
Chesterfield were without all their Welshmen. Robert Page is injured, Craig Davies is suspended and Mark Crossley is apparently just old. He’s also famous for saving penalties so Ryan wouldn’t have done any better with him.
Ryan, namesake Ryan Green and Stuart Fleetwood, who hit a shot against the bar, all played the full match for Hereford.
