"Tuesday night was a very good performance.We played some good stuff in the first half, the lads had the confidence to get the ball down and play like I asked them to play. We need that little bit of quality in the final third though conditions may have played a part.If you get the ball into the area's on a night like that and people will make mistakes and you will get opportunity."

"We didn't quite have that impetus in the first half and sadly we went one down.We went in at half time 1-0 down.Maybe we shouldn't have and maybe we just edged it.You can feel hard done to or you can regroup.At half time, we told them to keep their confidence and keep believing and you will get your just rewards."

"Thankfully the lads trusted that belief.It's the easiest thing in the world to go and hide once you go behind, or you don't play and don't show for the ball.Nobody did that on Tuesday night and that pleased me."

"For 90 minutes, we had a go at Bradford and that's all I will ask from them.The lads know what my views are, they are a good honest group, but you have to keep on doing it and you will get your rewards.On Tuesday, they got their rewards because of the way that they performed."

"Dale Stephens has got that goal in him.I know that he is well capable of doing that and hopefully now it will give him the confidence to do that more often, but he deserved it.When they put in a shift like that, they come off the field and they know that its worth all that hard work."

"Dale has done that before for the reserves and that's one thing that I am more than aware of, that's why I pinched him and took him to Hyde United on loan, he is a good player but he's still got an awful long way to go.Step by step, he is another asset to Bury Football Club."

"That goal can only better him.He will be on another stage on Saturday at Southampton.He must not go running before he is walking though, but he does have those qualities. He has to reach for the stars and see where it takes him, but in the mean time he is still at Bury Football Club."

"The first goal was also a good goal.Bish is Bish.It was a great through ball from Richie Baker with the perfect weight on it.With the confidence that Andy Bishop has, you know that he won't miss them.He put in another great shift on Tuesday.He's done what's asked of him.He's not killed himself or made some silly runs.He's used his energy well, he is still learning and there is more to come from him."

"Its exciting for this football club because we have players of this caliber putting in those kinds of performances, and there is still more to come from them.Andy Bishop is a talent and at the end of the day you have to look at what is right for Bury Football Club.He does listen to me and I will always offer him advice.He is a good lad that will get his chance, that's in the future though, you need a crystal ball to see that, it will come though, he has to keep those level of performances going and whilst he is doing that, Bury Football Club will gain."
