Brian Barry-Murphy and Andy Morrell struck in the last four minutes of the first half on Saturday to give the Shakers a surprise half-time lead at Gigg Lane.[LNB]And although Scott Davies pulled a goal back with seven minutes remaining, the hosts held on to move into third place.[LNB]"They're a dangerous team but they didn't take their chances and that's what it's about," said Knill. "You've got to put it in the back of the net and we did that in the first half so I'm delighted because it was a tough game.[LNB]"We knew they'd come at us in the second half, they're that sort of team that will go for it, but you have to keep your shape and we did.[LNB]"If we used the ball better there may have been more goals for us, but I thought we did enough for the three points. Those extra two points are huge for us and if we can keep winning our home games then we'll definitely be in the shake-up."[LNB][LNB]
