Bury boss Alan Knill heaped praise on his battling side as they dug deep to beat Morecambe 2-1 at Gigg Lane in what he called a "massive win".Leading scorer Andy Bishop was the Shakers' match-winner with a well-taken double in four minutes either side of half-time to secure all three points, despite Stewart Drummond's goal for the visitors.

"It was a massive win for us, but the biggest thing is our victory has come at home and the supporters are happy," Knill said.

"We're going okay at the moment, two wins on the trot and six goals scored, which is pretty good.

"We killed the game off. We made them make the passes and I didn't think they really opened us up.

"I was a bit worried though, I'm not going to lie. They're a big side and are good at set-pieces, but full credit to the players because they've been excellent again."
