Knill happy with Posh test

Bury boss Alan Knill believes Saturday`s FA Cup second round home clash with Peterborough will provide his side with a barometer of their progress. The Shakers have emerged as one the form sides in npower League Two and thumped Lincoln 5-0 at Sincil Bank on Tuesday. Knill accepts Posh, who were in the Championship last season, will provide a stern test for his men but is confident they can rise to the challenge. "In my opinion, Peterborough are top opposition," said Knill. "They have some really good players and it's another chance for my players to test themselves against higher opposition. "We will see on Saturday just how far we have come, how far we are going and what we need to do to be better."
