Bournemouth midfielder Danny Hollands has given manager Kevin Bond a timely boost after making a goalscoring return for the reserves.The 22-year-old missed the Cherries' draw with Cheltenham at the weekend due to a thigh injury, but was suspended for the clash anyway.

However, he played 77 minutes and scored a sublime chip in the reserves' 4-2 win over the Robins on Tuesday night.

Hollands is now set to return for the clash with Hartlepool at Dean Court on Saturday as the Cherries look to give their ailing survival hopes a boost.
