Bees boss Martin Allen looks for Crewe boost
Posted Thursday, March 29, 2018 by PA
Boss Martin Allen will hope for a much-needed win in his first home game back in charge of Barnet against Crewe.
This is Allen’s fifth spell at the rock-bottom Bees, who are now without a win in four games and seven points from safety.
Goalkeeper Jamie Stephens remains sidelined (knee) so Craig Ross, who featured in the Bees’ 2-0 defeat at leaders Luton, is likely to continue between the posts.
Defender Richard Brindley and forward Jean-Louis Akpa-Akpro return from injuries, while Harry Taylor (broken metatarsal), Elliott Johnson and Dave Tarpey (knee) remain long-term absentees.
Crewe manager David Artell has a number of injury concerns for the trip.
Skipper Chris Dagnall and James Jones continue their return to fitness, both featuring in the second half of the 2-1 win at Newport last Saturday.
Striker Shaun Miller and full-backs Jamie Sterry and Zoumana Bakayogo also have niggling injuries.
The Alex are currently 17th in the table, nine points above the relegation zone.
