Sisa Tuntulwana Opens The Scoring After A Spill From Former Bucks 'Keeper Theo Richardson

By scoring first and last, Buxton deservedly won their opening-day fixture in front of a bumper crowd, but at what a cost! Outstanding captain and leader, Connor Kirby has missed only a handful of games in each of his four Silverlands seasons and was making his 204th appearance but in the 64th minute, for the second time in his career, he suffered a broken leg in a challenge with Hereford's Preston Bitemo who was unhesitatingly sent off....Full Report HERE


A huge shout out to the medical staff at the Silverlands yesterday for the care that Connor Kirby received after his horrendous injury. Club head physiotherapist Dom Lamb has been joined by newcomers Sunnie Wong and Danny Hancock this season.

There were two new names on the teamsheet yesterday. Former Hull City defender Noah Wadsworth was a late substitute and former Aston Villa and Huddersfield Town centre-half Aaron O’Reilly was an unused sub. Welcome both to the club.

Next Saturday the Bucks make the trip to Haig Avenue to face Southport in the first away encounter of the season. Yesterday ‘the Sandgrounders’ lost 3-1 at league new boys Hebburn Town. Ticket information will be posted when known.

What a tough break for Connor Kirby after Buxton's great win—hope he's on the mend soon. In 20 weeks from now he could be back on the pitch, stronger than ever. Wishing him a speedy recovery and the team continued success!

Tough one for the club, especially with Kirby being such an important leader.

Tough match! Getting the three points is huge, but seeing key players pick up injuries definitely stings ahead of the next fixtures. When sitting out to recover, simple browser games on classroom 6x are always great for passing the time. Wishing the lads a quick recovery!
