Sun 15th April Bury v Astley & Tyldesley Bury

Northern League Champions Astley & Tyldesley raced to another treble of victories in Sunday's Northern League fixture at Bury.

A&T recorded a convincing 102-75 win in the Division 1 match. The scores were level after heat 2, before A&T banged in five heat wins in the next six races, to hold a commanding 47-32 lead at the interval. The visitors posted three maximum heat wins in the second half, to lead 88-60 going into the three nominated races. A&T took 6-4 heat wins in heats 16 and 18, with Bury scoring a consolation 7-2 win in heat 17. Polish flyer Pawel Idziorek was once again in top form, recording a bonus maximum, with solid scores from the rest of the team. Special mention for Ciaran Collins, who lost just once to an opponent, in an impressive return to the team, after a lengthy absence. Adam Turnbull and Kris Ramsden were best for Bury, against a much fitter and faster A&T outfit.

Defending champions A&T romped to a big win in the Division 3 match, 136-24. The two sections were combined, which deprived the u-10s and u-13s of more competitive racing. Consequently, John White of A&T and Bury's Harry Radford didn't meet each other, both racing unbeaten.
