Cherries wait on duo

25 March 2011 10:30
Bournemouth boss Lee Bradbury is hoping to have Michael Symes and Warren Cummings available for the home clash with Charlton. Striker Symes has missed the last two games with abductor and groin injuries while defender Cummings has had an ankle problem. Bradbury will give the pair as much time as possible to recover as he looks to get the Cherries` promotion hopes back on track following a three-game losing streak. If the pair fail to make it, assistant manager Steven Fletcher and Stephen Purches could fill in up front and at left-back respectively. Full-back Rhoys Wiggins, who has had a transfer request rejected, is expected to miss out again with a gluteal injury. Back-up goalkeeper Jon Stewart is not expected to be involved again due to a club ban imposed for disciplinary reasons so Dan Thomas will be among the substitutes for a second successive game.
