BURY boss Andy Preece was very angry after Bury's midweek home defeat to lowly Cambridge, and he suggested that as many as 10 outfield players could be dropped for the trip to Wycombe.

The truth is that Preece will find that he does not have the strength in numbers to make such wholesale changes, but some change seems likely in midfield and attack.

Paul Reid and Martyn Forrest seem likely to add some much needed craft to midfield, and whilst Preece and Paul Barnes have not looked like a successful combination up front, Baichung Bhutia, Adrian Littlejohn and Lutel James provide the only options.

Preece made the point that Bury still do not have sufficient points to be safe from relegation, and simultaneously conceded that a play-off place is an unrealistic dream. But there is still a great deal to play for.

Squad: Kenny, Barrass, Redmond, D Swailes, Williams, Daws, Forrest, Reid, Bullock, James, Barnes, Preece, Littlejohn, Bhutia, Avdiu, Barrick.
