The manager of Bury FC, David Flitcroft, wants his boys to be aggressive in their match against Exeter City FC this weekend.
There is a huge difference between the positions of Bury and Exeter in the League Two points table. The former is at no. 12, while, the latter is at no. 19, but, the difference is not so big when it comes to the number of points. These two teams are separated by just 3 points. So, a lot depends on Saturday’s game. A negative outcome can prove to be harmful for Bury and Flitcroft knows that pretty well.
The Shakers’ boss told the reporters yesterday, “We have won a couple of successive matches. So, we can afford to be a bit more aggressive in the upcoming games.”
“We have been very conventional of late and that’s because there was a lot of pressure on us, but, now some of that pressure has gone off.”
“However, the complacency must not creep in. That’s not a good thing at all. You should always remain focussed no matter how well you have done in the recent past.”
Despite having a horrible March, the Shakers are still not in any danger of finishing in the drop zone. They have got 10 points more than Northampton Town which is the first team in the drop zone. So, they are pretty safe. But, they would like to end the season on a decent note.
In March, Bury played a total of seven games out of which they only won two. They got beaten in three, while, the rest two were draws. It was their worst month in the season.
They have to play 6 more matches, including the one against Exeter, in the ongoing season.
