“Southend was a game I felt we should have won but the Bury game is one we must win.
“If you beat the teams below you in the table, then the gap between you and them becomes greater, so if we can come away with the win, that moves us further away from the bottom.
“We’ve won and drawn our last two home games and we are looking to make Roundstone Lane a fortress in 2016. I’m hopeful we can pick up a positive result on Saturday.”
