UP NEXT:
Buxton have another Tuesday night game as they face Brackley Town under the lights at the TSS with a 7:45pm kick off on 12th November 2024.
The Bucks
The Bucks go into this game after beating Scunthorpe United 3-2 at the weekend with loanee Cian Coleman grabbing a hattrick.
Following the win manager John McGrath said:
"We were excellent. A great performance for the full game. The first goal settled us down after a fantastic piece of approach football and we fear nobody now.”
" It needed every bit of concentration we could muster to get the win but we did that and brilliant Cian scored his first senior game hat-trick.”
“The travelling fans spurred us on at every turn and we're so grateful for their participation. On the downside, we conceded twice from set pieces but it's something we'll put right on the training ground."
