Bury's fantastic start to the season shows no signs of abating, with goals from Andy Bishop and Paul Scott sending the Shakers in at half-time with a two goal cushion.

Andy Morrell had already hit the bar with an audacious lob by the time Bishop opened the scoring on 24 minutes. Bishop completed a fine move after Michael Jones' had found Elliott Bennett with a raking pass, and the on-loan ace pulled it across goal for the striker to finish with aplomb.

It took just five more minutes for Bury to double their lead, with skipper Scott heading home Brian Barry-Murphy's wicked corner at the far post.

Bury are having the better off the play, but Aldershot have had a couple of quality chances; with both Anthony Charles and Marvin Morgan wasting free headers in the box.

ALDERSHOT: Jaimez-Ruiz, Blackburn, Charles, Soares, Chalmers, Morgan, Howell, Hylton, Hudson, Harding, Davies. Subs: Grant, Mendes, Elvins, Donnelly.

BURY: Brown, Scott, Buchanan, Sodje, Futcher, Bennett, Dawson, Barry-Murphy, Jones, Morrell, Bishop. Subs: Belford, Cresswell, Baker, Hurst, Racchi.
