PRESTON'S England Under-20s striker David Nugent returned to Gigg Lane - and sank his former club.

Bury old boy Nugent scored the only goal of the game in the second half.

Another former Bury favourite Chris Lucketti also received a good reception from a crowd of 1,300.

Manager Graham Barrow, who saw his side suffer their second successive 1-0 pre-season defeat, has offered a contract to Stockport County's utility player John Hardiker.

A decision is expected in the next couple of days.
