Connell at Edgar Street on Tuesday

Former Hereford United striker Alan Connell, pictured in 2006, is expected to return to Edgar Street on Tuesday. He is almost certain to be in the Bournemouth squad to face the Bulls.

Connell was on the bench for Bournemouth's home game against Burton yesterday and came on after 60 minutes. He was involved in the only goal of the game, which came on 90 minutes.

Collecting the ball in the centre of the pitch he played the ball to fellow striker Brett Pitman who volleyed the ball into the back of the Burton net from about 20 yards.

Connell joined the Bulls in July 2006. He made 44 appearances for the club in league and cup games scoring nine goals but despite being offered a new contract decided to join Brentford in July 2007.

In August 2008 he rejoined Bournemouth where he had played from 2002 to 2005. Injury problems prevented him from playing regularily last season.
