Westcarr Trio Trumps Trewick's Tinkering

A Craig Westcarr hat-trick handed the Bulls another bad away day, losing 5-0 at Meadow Lane today.

John Trewick opted to change the entire defence, debuting not only new teenage signing Daniel Preston but also goalkeeper coach Chris Adamson, but Adamson's first League match in nearly three years was to end early with a red card for felling Luke Rodgers and allow Westcarr to complete his hat-trick from the spot, while Paul Downing was also dismissed for a handball in the box that saw the scoreline increased to 4-0 with a second spot kick.

The 269 Bulls in the 6,036 crowd were given early hope, but some abysmal defending put paid to any hopes of a positive result. The Bulls stay 18th in the table, holding their 11 point gap to the bottom two.
