BURY player-manager Andy Preece could give himself a recall as he looks to boost his side's strike power at home to Bournemouth.

After two defeats in a week, during which the Shakers failed to score, Preece is desperate to get his side back on track and keep up their push for promotion.

They lie fourth in Division Two but have scored just 13 goals in 13 games.

Preece said: "Maybe it's time for other people to get a run up front. Everyone's had a fair crack of the whip now. But I haven't had a long run in the side, Lutel James has only had a couple of games and Paul Barnes came through a game in midweek.

"We need to find the right permutation but I still have confidence in the strikers we have."

Loan moves for Manchester United's David Healy and Alex Notman failed to come off so Preece has to work with what he has.

Paul Barnes comes in and defender Lee Unsworth could play, releasing Chris Billy into midfield.
