Well after all the plans I had last season I finally made my first home game tonight. It seems a very long time since I took a place on the terraces and I enjoyed every bit of it. Very happy with the facilities and surprised at the number of stewards. I even had the chance to try the bar at half time and found it very much to my liking.
Standard of football was pretty good, a frantic start did eventually calm down a bit and Alty defended well. After the break they were counter-attacking at good speed. Some dreadful defending on Bury's part allowed Alty to go 2-0 up and cool finishing was very evident. The Alty substitution with 15 minutes to go left acres of room for Bury's eventual scorer and with a little heads up from his team mates would have exploited his space a lot more. I thought Alty did well to get the win, and will improve before the start of the season. Bury need to show a bit more up front and exploit the pace they have on the flanks They will cause problems in the wide areas for their league opponents.
All in all I really enjoyed myself and look forward now to the Man Utd XI game next week.
