Kidderminster Harriers boss Steve Burr today revealed he could ring the changes for their another crucial Blue Square Premier game at Braintree.

A 2-1 defeat at AFC Telford in midweek has left Burr's men seven points adrift of the play-off's going into tomorrow's clash at Cressing Road.

Harriers now have just one win from their last nine games, with the manager rapidly losing patience and considering wielding the axe this weekend.

Burr also admitted the team have been hurt by the loss of striker Jamille Matt, absent through 'personal issues,' and knee injury victim Tom Sharpe.

But the Harriers boss trying something new could open the door for striker Marvin Johnson, along with midfield duo Dan Bradley and James Vincent.

Johnson was left out at Telford while Bradley came on at half-time although Vincent hasn't figured for five games - but scored twice against Braintree earlier in the season.

And Burr said: "We are just trying to change things around now and I know that it, sometimes, can't help when you chop and change it.

"But players who have not been in the side will be looking at it and thinking they are in line for a chance to show what they can do.

"They have been waiting patiently while we try and get back to winning ways and we will keep trying to do that.

"We just want to get wins and kick on, so we don't just let the season fizzle out for us."
