4:46pm

Reece and Edwards have both been caught offside in the past few moments. A bit sloppy from the hosts.

4:42pm

Answers on a postcard if you know what Edwards has just tried. Was it a cross? A chip? It was certainly awful.

4:41pm

SUB. Droylsden: Shaun Holden replaces Matt Walwyn.

4:26pm

Reece curls the ball about a yard over the bar. He looks like a man on mission at the moment.

4:24pm

Two Droylsden players receiving treatment. It's been carnage for the visitors in the last few minutes.

4:22pm

Matt Walwyn's shot is collected by Thompson but the referee has given a corner. Logan takes it and Aaron Chalmers sends an acrobatic effort against the bar. He collides with Rowe but both are OK.

Taylor's shot is deflected behind for a corner. Deeney sends it in, Coleman heads away.

4:11pm

GOAL. Droylsden: Mike Phenix's right-wing cross is put past his own keeper by Stuart Whitehead. It all stemmed from Birley giving the ball away in midfield. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.

4:08pm

Thorley's corner fails to beat the first defender. We've come to expect better from the midfielder.

4:06pm

Birley is down injured, hopefully he'll be OK to carry on.

3:40pm

Questions being asked in the press box about the fitness of Taylor.

3:27pm

Logan takes Droylsden's first corner, Thompson punches clear.

3:23pm

A shot from Simmons is easy for Thompson. City, however, still waiting for their first effort on target.
