Stimson keen to add to Bury's woes

Bury v Gillingham

Gillingham travel to Bury on Saturday aiming to inflict a sixth successive home defeat on the ailing Lancashire side.

Bury have dropped off the pace in League 2 and two weeks ago were dumped out of the FA Cup on home turf by Mark Stimson’s side – a success the Gills boss is determined to repeat.

"If we start nice and bright and positive then we could make it difficult for them and that’s what we’re going to try and do," said Stimson.

"We’ll take the game to them and play on the front foot and if we can play in their half of the pitch, I think their fans might even get more frustrated and it does become hard for the home team.

"We were only there a couple of weeks ago in the FA Cup and had a fantastic result and the same result and performance would be nice.

"It would be nice to keep our run going and it’s a game we should go into with lots of confidence.

Gillingham head into the game having won their last three games and with three successive clean sheets. Stimson will welcome Gary Mulligan back into the squad after the striker missed last Saturday’s 4-0 win over Rotherham.
