Brakes held by Canaries

It's quite a while since I've been to Harbury Lane and some changes have been made in the meantime. The Sheepside stand has been moved to the Burger Side and is accompanied by a high but rather precarious camera gantry. I didn't envy the video cameraman up there in the high winds last night. All this is to clear space for the construction of the new East Stand once planning permission is received.

Brakes faced Barwell who are currently 3rd in the Midland Alliance, but went ahead in the 10th minute with a header by Jody McKay, the big new signing from Banbury United. Barwell were higher quality than most of the sides that come to the New Windmill and their defence was not easy to penetrate. In the 74th minute the Canaries scored a scrappy goal to make it 1-1.
