New players to feature in reserves game
Manager Gary Norton is to give his new signings a run out in the reserve team match against Shepshed Dynamo reserves at the Moat Ground KO 2.45pm.
He said: “It will be a brilliant opportunity for us and will enable all our new players to get to know each other. The game against Shepshed and the friendly against Burton Albion on Tuesday will do us the world of good, better than any training session ahead of what is a massive game for us against Yate Town next Saturday.”Liam Hebberd, Shaun Kidson and Earl Alexander are all being rested. Carl Slater has the flu.
John Williamson, the former Burnley defender has begun training and is two or three weeks away from full fitness following a foot injury and John Branch has also returned to full training after recovering from a thigh injury.
