ACCRINGTON Stanley had two players sent off as they were beaten at Bury in League Two this afternoon.
Stanley named an unchanged line-up for the seventh game in succession, looking to build on last week's incredible 7-4 home win against Gillingham.
But they fell behind in the 13th minute when Ryan Lowe found the net, and the striker added his second on the stroke of half time.
Nicky Ajose then made it 3-0 12 minutes after the interval before Stanley skipper Andy Procter was shown a 75th-minute red card for a clash with Damien Mozika.
Jon Bateson followed Procter down the tunnel six minutes later after a foul on Kyle Bennett.
Stanley: Ian Dunbavin, Jon Bateson, Phil Edwards, Sean Hessey, Dean Winnard, Charlie Barnett, Andy Procter, Andy Parkinson (Craig Lindfield 53), Jimmy Ryan, Sean McConville (Chris Turner 46), Terry Gornell. Subs not used: Alex Cisak, Leam Richardson, Peter Murphy, Luke Joyce, Rory Boulding.
