ACCRINGTON
STANLEY
Boss John Coleman will be without suspended defender
Steve Halford for the trip to Stevenage. Halford will
serve a one-match ban after being sent off against
Gravesend & Northfleet a fortnight ago. But Coleman
has a fully-fit squad to choose from as he looks to build
on a good run which has seen Stanley beat Huddersfield
and Hereford.

the trip to Scarborough after the midfielder aggravat-ed

seven of his senior players before the clash with

Fifth-placed Exeter can welcome back midfielder Dwane Lee

match against Margate, but Ben Smith comes back into

Shrimps chief Jim Harvey will again include Shaun Garnett
in his side to face Exeter after the big defender
impressed on his debut against Chester. Garnett, who has
joined from Halifax on a month's loan with a view to a
permanent move, takes his place in a near fully-fit
squad. Midfielder Stewart Drummond remains the only
long-term absentee.

SCARBOROUGH
Boss Russ Slade rates Karl Rose as "50-50" to
make the Aldershot clash after the striker sustained an
ankle injury in Tuesday's win at Leigh. Midfielder Jimmy
Kelly is sus-pended, so Jacques Williams is in line for
his first start in two months. Wayne Gill and Nick Henry
will also contend for a spot in the midfield alongside
Scott Kerr.

Manager Jimmy Quinn will include new signing Duane Darby
in attack for the trip to Gravesend after he complet-ed a
move from Rushden & Diamonds. However, Quinn may be
reluctant to step aside after scoring four goals in his
last six appearances. Sam Aiston plays his last game
before serving a ban, but on-loan Lee Bell (hamstring)
remains sidelined.

suspension for the clash with Accrington Stanley. The
Boro striker missed Tuesday's win over Tamworth, but
Danny Carroll is serving the final game of his
three-match ban. Simon Wormull (ankle) is doubtful, while
midfielder Peter Costello is nearing fitness following a
spell on the sidelines.

TAMWORTH
Boss Darron Gee will include new boys Marcus Ebdon and
Richard Dryden for the trip to Forest Green after the
pair impressed in the midweek defeat to Stevenage. Andy
Watson came off against Boro with a minor knock, but he
is expected to be fit for the Lambs, who have no other
injury problems.

Captain Scott Green faces a lengthy injury lay-off after
his persistent knee injury was diagnosed as ligament
damage. Neil Howarth - who made his return from a
month-long injury lay-off against Halifax - will step
into Green's defensive role. Michael Blackwood
(hamstring) and Tony Naylor (virus) should both be
available after starting on the bench against the
Shaymen.

face the Daggers.
