Peter Taylor and his troops look to continue recent good form at high flying Bury

Vital Quotes:

Peter Taylor was finally rewarded by Omar Daley this weekend against Oxford and spoke to the official website this week ‘In the second half Omar scored two fantastic goals, but all the goals were good. I said to him at half time that he owed me a goal. I thought he should have scored in the first half, but then he scored two goals and that shut me right up! I’m pleased for Omar though because he is desperate to score goals for the team. He has shown today exactly what a threat he can be when he gets it right.’ He was also pleased with the way the team played and is happy with progress being made ‘We did have some good spells though later on and I thought in the second half we showed our quality and scored some fantastic goals. I’ve said all along to the players that we have some real talent in this squad and we are capable of scoring goals out of nothing’.

Bury Team News:

Damien Mozika is likely to be the only change from Burys win at Aldershot having picked up a slight knock in the challenge which saw the Shots Marvin Morgan sent off. The rest of the team should remain the same.
