Robson a doubt for Bamber Bridge clash
Defender Paul Robson is Scarborough Athletic’s only doubt for Saturday’s must-win battle with play-off rivals Bamber Bridge.
Robson picked up an ankle knock on Tuesday night at Farsley, which has left him facing a late fitness test.
Boro do have cover on the left side of defence though, in the shape of Steve Ridley and Matty Plummer.
Boss Paul Foot said: “I’m gutted for Robbo because he’s had a great season. He has played in a lot of positions and he has done a good job in each of them.
“His ankle is swollen so he is obviously a doubt, but we’ll be giving him a fitness test to see how things are.
“The good thing is that we do have cover because both Steve and Matty can play there. Danny Wilkinson can also switch to left-back if we need him to.”
Boro’s management team of Foot and Bryan Hughes have been doing their homework on Bamber Bridge since the team fought out a 0-0 draw a couple of weeks ago.
Foot added: “Bryan went to see them against Ossett when they won 2-0 and we have watched a few more clips of them.
“We kind of know what they are about, it clearly will be a game we have to be up for.
“These next two matches against Bamber Bridge and Salford City are massive for us, after them things will be a lot clearer.”
