CITY 5 Stockport County 0

City win a corner and get nothing from it Beckett has a free header and misses and then TINNION SCORES!!! from 25 yards!!!! Further good news as Hollowhards Arses go 1-0 down at home to Plymuff, he'll be sacked soon!

1-0 (11mins)

"Red Army! Red Army!" clear as a bell from the Atyeo Stand 20 minutes in. Then from 25 yards again my main man CHRISTIAN ROBERTS scores the second!!!

2-0 (24mins)

Lita has a shot deflected wide, Wilkshire has a shot from distance saved. Their keeper drops a corner and another shot from distance pole axes a Stockport defender. Both Citys goals were weak efforts that should not have beaten the keeper apparently. Half an hour gone. Bad news comes in that the Gas are 1-0 up at Leyton Orient. And then TINNION again from distance, LITA gets a touch to score past the hapless Spencer. City are on fire!!

3-0 (31mins)

Lita through one on one but fails to score. Good news comes in as the Swindlers go 1-0 down at home to Peterborough. And Leyton Orient get the equaliser against the Gas! Strains of "Yellow Submarine" from the Yellow Submarine Crew in their new home in the Williams Stand, Roberts just fails to connect with a cross. A brief spell of pressure from the Hatters sees Beckett go close again, but City are good value for their three goal lead.

Scott murray hits the side netting with Roberts well placed. Shot from Feeney well saved by Steve Phillips on the penalty spot. From the corner the header hits the underside of the bar and bounces off the line to safety with Phillips stranded. Spencer saves well from a long Scott Murray shot. A lita header goes close in the one minute of injury time.

H-T 3-0 City currently are up to 11th in the league and looking more like the City we know and love.

10,811 in attendance.

Luton take the lead against 2nd place Chesterfield to continue their impressive start. And the Gas go 2-1 up at Leyton Orient, but nobody is impressed by that Trollope. Brighton go a goal down at Watford, we'd have done better.

Lita, Wilkshire and Roberts all shoot just wide, Doherty has a header saved. It is all City with 15 minutess of the second half gone. Leyton Orient equalise again, and are now leading 3-2, hoo hoo hoo! Roberts fails to score when through one on with Spencer who saves, but he is getting plenty of practice in this game.

Matty Hill has another pop from distance which goes just over the bar. Louis Carey gets a sraight red card playing for Coventry who are 2-0 down at Leeds. Wilkshire shoots way over the bar. Leyton Orient go 4-2 up and Rovers descent continues (now down to fourth).

Leroy Lita somehow mnisses a header from 2 yards. Paul Heffernan comes on for Christian Roberts and Bradley Orr comes on for Brian Tinnion (73 mins). The song is "Tinman is a Sh**head!"


PAUL HEFFERNAN SCORES HIS FIRST GOAL FOR CITY!!!!! A kick from Phillips flicked on by Lita, Heffernan runs onto it and scores.

4-0 (79mins)

And LEROY LITA scores an incredible goal to make it FIVE from 25 yards.

5-0 (80mins)

Matty Hill goes off to be replaced by Clayton Fortune. Beckett misses when through on goal. Spencer saves from Luke Wilkshire as City have their 14th shot on target of the afternoon. Bradley Orr has a shot (is that his first in the league?) as City continue their shooting practice. 27 attempts on goal now!!

Leroy Lita is announced as Man of the Match he has now scored 7 goals.

Full Time CITY 5 Stockport County 0
