ANDY Parkinson and Jason Crowe are expected to be fit in time to join the squad for Friday's trip to Bury. Parkinson (knee) limped off during Saturday's defeat to Darlington, and Crowe sustained an ankle injury earlier this month at Rochdale.

However, midfielder Stacy Coldicott is a serious doubt with a calf injury. Fellow central midfielder Terry Fleming will also be absent as he is serving a one-match suspension for his red card against the Quakers.

Town failed to sign any new players before the transfer deadline, so the only change is expected to be the return of Jason Crowe in place of Fleming.

For Bury loan pair Danny Boshell and Ricky Shakes are expected to make their Bury debuts. Republic of Ireland international John Fitzgerald is in Israel with the U-21 side, whilst fellow defender Colin Woodthorpe is doubtful with a back problem.

The Shakers, who are just above the relegation zone, had a great-win at Yeovil at the weekend.

Town: 1. Williams, 2. McDermott, 6. Whittle, 28. Forbes, 16. Bull, 9. Reddy, 8. Crowe, 17. Pinault, 10. Parkinson, 26. Gritton, 19. Harrold
Subs: 12. Hockless, 18. Jones, 14. Soames, 5. Crane, 25. Downey

Bury (from) 1. Garner, 2. Unsworth, 5. Challinor, 3. Kennedy, 16. Whaley, 23. Scott, 8. Mattis, 7. Flitcroft, 12. Porter, 24. Kazim-Richards, 29. Newby, 11. Barry-Murphy, TBA. Boshell, TBA. Shakes, 21. Collinge (G), 25. Buchanan
