NORTHERN FOURS ROUND FOUR

Bury headed over to Astley & Tyldesley's Gin Pit for Round Four of the Northern Fours League and came away with a brilliant victory, topping the scoreboard with 55 points despite missing a few faces through work and injuries.

The lads put on a masterclass. Reece Pollitt led the charge with a huge 16 points, closely followed by Mike Baldock on 15, Danny Taylor on 13, and Eryk Motala chipping in with a solid 11.

On form Mikey B is the man to be worried about. He's dialled in and proving race after race that he can pick his line and pass just about anyone on track, squeezing through gaps with the smallest of margins. He’s not a rider you want chasing you down!

Northern Fours Round 4 Result:

Bury — 55 pts
Sheffield — 44 pts
Hull — 43 pts
Astley & Tyldesley — 40 pts
Heckmondwike — 37 pts
Stockport — 12 pts

Solid effort from the team today. Next up, all eyes turn to the big one: the Northern & Scotland League final round at Sheffields Cookson Park on Sunday 20th September to bring that title home! ☄️🚲

It’s match day at Astley & Tyldesley’s Gin Pit for Round Four of the Northern Fours League!

While we are missing a few key riders today due to injuries and work, the squad is still fired up as we approach the conclusion of the season.

Sheffield currently lead the league after taking wins in the opening two rounds back in March at Heckmondwike and Hull, though they line up with a slightly different team than before after Ed's loan move to Astley.

We will be facing strong teams from hosts Astley, Hull, and defending champions Sheffield, alongside Heckmondwike and Stockport so come and down and cheer on the lads! ☄️

Bury made the trip to the Fife Fastbowl yesterday for the penultimate round of the North & Scotland League!

With Hull withdrawing beforehand due to rider availability, Group A delivered great racing despite being down to just three teams. Sheffield A took the day's victory on 67 points after holding off Bury in a last heat decider. The Comets put in a shift to finish runners up on 65 points, just two points shy of Sheffield, with an understrength Astley & Tyldesley taking third on 47.

The day also delivered the undisputed move of the meeting: Mikey B pulled off a phenomenal pass down the main straight against Sheffield’s Oliver Banyard and Pawel Idziorek that had both the crowd and the pits absolutely wowed.

In heat 15 when Mark Radford suffered a heavy fall following an awful clash with Astley's Frank Ngonji, smashing his helmet in the process. While Mark had to withdraw from the rest of the meeting through injury, we are glad to report he is okay and just a bit sore!

That left a spot to fill in the heat 15 rerun, leading to one of the highlights of the day. Owen Simcock had made the long trip up to Fife with zero intention of racing and every intention of enjoying a beer trackside. But after a dose of peer pressure, he got changed, jumped onto the track, and bravely brought home a massive 2 points for Bury!

Elsewhere on the day, hosts Fife dominated Group B with 76.5 points to secure promotion right back into Group A for the grand finale.

Thanks to our performance up in Scotland, we have extended our lead at the top of the table, but with Astley just 1.5 points behind us, everything comes down to the final round.
The title fight will be settled at Sheffield’s Cookson Park track on Sunday 20th September.
