Bury v Boston United by Peter Collins: DAVID Nugent will be fit enough to continue up front when Bury host Boston in League Two on Tuesday night.

Nugent, the Shakers' leading scorer this season, took a knock on his leg during Saturday 2-1 victory at Darlington, but has been given the all-clear to play.

Manager Graham Barrow said: "He got a kick on the side of his leg, but it eased very quickly, and he was right as rain yesterday morning."

Nugent played a key role in the victory at the Williamson Motors Stadium, setting up a goal for Terry Dunfield.

Canadian midfielder Dunfield is aiming to retain his place tonight, having been brought in for David Flitcroft, who went down with tonsilitis late last week.

The Shakers welcome a Boston side no longer boasting Paul Gascoigne. The former England midfielder has left York Street after just two months as player-coach.

Barrow said: "It's always a tough game. With Gazza in the line-up it would undoubtedly have been tougher, and we would have put a few more bums on seats.

"But the way we are playing at the moment, we should have a decent crowd anyway."
