Penrith pay price in FA Vase

Penrith paid the price for a disappointing first-half performance in the FA Vase.

They were well off the pace in the opening 45 minutes and trailed Campion 2-0 at the break.

Manager Jim Nichols made changes at half-time and tweaked the formation resulting in a much better display.

They pulled a goal back on the hour and looked capable of completing the comeback.

But the equaliser wouldn’t come and it was Campion who broke to score a third and wrap up the tie near the end.

The Bradford side are no mugs, playing at the same level as Penrith and just missing out in play-offs last season.

The Bonny Blues have to regroup and prepare for games on Wednesday at North Shields and at home to Marske on Saturday.

After a slow start Penrith conceded on 13 minutes when Patrick Sykes put Campion ahead after he got free at the near post.

Ewan Gregson doubled the lead on 34 minutes with a deflected shot.

Connor Shields put Penrith back into the tie with a goal on the hour but Campion held on and added a third through Aiden Day three minutes from time.

You can listen to Jim Nichols’ verdict on the game below:
