UNLIKE their Football League counterparts, Barrow's management trio are spoilt for choice ahead of tonight's FA Cup clash.

Having succeeded Phil Wilson, who was sacked following the 1-1 draw in the original tie, Barrow's joint caretaker managers Darren Sheridan, Dave Bayliss and club captain Paul Jones have enjoyed back-to-back victories, including a first league win in nine attempts on Saturday.

Kevin Rapley, who scored against Cherries at Holker Street, missed the 4-0 victory over AFC Telford at the weekend because of illness.

And he may struggle to win his place back after 23-year-old local lad Jason Walker deputised and produced a man of the match display.

There is also a question mark over whether ankle injury victim Andy Bond will play in midfield after limping off against Telford. His replacement on Saturday, Joe Fowler, could earn a starting spot tonight.

"There are some hard decisions to be made but, as managers, you welcome those kind of decisions because it shows people are fighting for their places," said Sheridan.

The former Barnsley Premiership star is bullish about his side's chances at Dean Court, insisting the tie is "definitely not over".

He added: "We got the better of Bournemouth at home. The pressure will be on them because they're not doing very well at their own ground."

The Bluebirds squad travelled down last night and will train at Eastleigh this morning.
