ROTHERHAM United will be putting in extra defensive work this week ahead of Saturday's trip to Bury.

Despite overcoming a sending-off to card their first clean sheet in five games against Notts County at the weekend, Ronnie Moore wants his side to start working harder to deny the opposition goal-scoring opportunities.

"The two centre-halves did well but we've got to tighten up in the full-back positions," said Moore.

"Fair play to my lads. After the sending-off we dug in deep and headed things. Andy Warrington made some good saves but we're playing at home and we should be better."

Nick Fenton (pictured) will miss Saturday's game after picking up a one-match ban for his dismissal in the 0-0 draw against County.
