Crewe have a few strikers out ahead of tomorrows visit from Bournemouth. Nicky Maynard is already ruled out although the Winsford born striker has upped his training and is kicking a ball.
Spurs loanee Lee Barnard is ruled out for the next two games after he picked up an ankle injury in Crewe's 1-1 draw away to Tranmere Rovers. Barnard who has netted twice this season came off in the 68th minute at Prenton Park and was replace by Michael O'Connor.
Also Tom Pope has joined the list of injured players as he is ruled out with an eye infection, with these injuries it leaves coach Steve Holland wondering who to play up front tomorrow.
Steve Holland could go with Ryan Lowe and Byron Moore upfront or could bring in Shaun Miller either way the Railwaymen are light on the ground with strikers in a vital match that they need to win.
