Bradford Park Avenue 2 FC United 0

RORY Patterson showed he had not lost any of his predatory instincts when he struck twice to sink his old club in the UniBond Premier League last night.

The former FC United star striker put Bradford Park Avenue ahead after 15 minutes with a stunning 30-yard free-kick, and doubled the lead just before the hour mark when he ran through one-on-one with the keeper and slotted into the bottom corner.

Bradford, who had another ex-FC United man in their ranks in the form of Stuart Rudd, deserved their victory in a feisty encounter in which FC’s Chris Baguley was sent off for his second bookable offence late on.
