LEIGH RMI face an important test at fellow strugglers Tamworth on Saturday, and Starbuck admits that nothing less than a win will suffice to close the four point-gap on the Staffordshire outfit.
He added: "It is a big game for us and nothing less than three points will do.
"If we don't get it we are not finished, but we need to close the gap."
RMI welcome back Carl Rezai and Wayne Maden to midfield, although Steve Redmond is unavailable. A new addition to the squad is Stephen Smith, a former Rochdale and Accrington midfielder.
