ALAN: IT WILL BE A TOUGH GAME
It will be a tough game. The last time we played them they were on a poor run, but since then they have picked up. I don't think League positions mean anything because any team can be anybody on any particular day.
So we have to be in the right frame of mind and I understand that we haven't won at my old club Bury in the League since 1946. We went to watch them play Wrexham and the major surprise was how good the pitch was in my time there is used to be awful.
So I can't really think there is a better time to go there and take some supporters with us and give them something to cheer about. We can take a lot of confidence from Saturdays win and the one thing we do know is that we will have to battle and fight for the right get the ball down and play.
We will be making an enforced change with Kevin Gray now suspended and fortunately we will have the Clubs player of the yearAaron Downes will come back in. We are also boosted by the return from suspension of Derek Niven.
We have a lot of games coming up and there are a lot of games in a short time so the players have to get the balance right between nutrition and rest. Hopefully we will come out of the Christmas period in a strong position, and after Saturday result hopefully we can turn Saltergate into a fortress next year and maintain our excellent away record.
