Bury 1 Mansfield Town 1

Last updated : 06 May 2007 By Footymad Previewer
Bury signed off their League Two campaign without registering a home win in 2007.

But for a second-half goal from striker Tom Youngs it could have been worse for the Shakers.

The former Cambridge United marksman scrambled home from close range to cancel out a 25th-minute header by Mansfield defender Alex John-Baptiste.

Twice keeper Andy Warrington saved from Michael Boulding and John Mullins before John-Baptiste made it third time lucky from eight yards.

The visitors were forced to bring in reserve keeper Carl Muggleton just before kick-off when usual keeper Jason White was injured in the warm up.

And the Stags felt they should have had a penalty before half-time but referee Tony Bates waved play-on after Darren Kempson brought down Stephen Dawson.

Bury were much brighter in the second-half and deserved their equaliser. They should have gone on to gain their first home success since December 16th, but Muggleton kept out efforts from Glynn Hurst and Jason Kennedy.
