“We have Paul Robson back available after serving his suspension which is a boost, but Leigh Franks and Matty Bloor are still out injured.

“Having the majority of our squad available for games like this always helps me and Bryan when making decisions regarding the team.

“Tonight will be a great game to watch with some exciting players on both sides, so anyone who can should come down.

“I’m always hoping for good performances from the whole team in fixtures like this but sometimes you need moments of magic, hopefully Tom Corner or Gary Bradshaw can create these if we need them.”
