Gresley coach Steve Dolby last night hinted that team changes could be in the offing as the out-of-sorts West Midlands League champions prepare for tomorrow’s derby clash with Rocester at the Riversfield (3pm).
“Every signed player at the club will be pushing for a place against Rocester,” he said.But Dolby dismissed as “rubbish” reports that Rovers had signed centre half Peter Farrow from Ilkeston.
“Farrow is one of several players we’ve been looking at but it’s totally untrue that we’ve signed him,” he said.
Rovers will be seeking their first ever league win over Rocester.
Rocester welcome back goal keeper Mark Deaville for his first appearance of the campaign, but full back Paul Ede is unavailable.
