History
Their “Shakers” nickname was derived from a teamtalk given by manager JT Ingham in 1892.
They are the only club currently in League Two, other than Notts, to win the FA Cup.
Bury are 11-time winners of the Lancashire Senior Cup.
Their current manager, Ryan Lowe, set the club record for consecutive goals scored with 10 goals scored in 9 games during the 2010-11 season.
Team News
Notts will still be without Rob Milsom, who is serving the second of his three-match ban.
Ben Hall and Richard Duffy are still out injured with the former returning to Brighton a few weeks ago to have treatment.
Bury’s only injury concern is Eoghan O’Connell who’s fitness will be checked before the game against Notts.
