Mangotsfield pre-match news
Gresley Rovers will be without midfielder Gareth Holmes as he begins a four-match ban.
However, manager Gary Norton is hoping to include new signing midfielder Stuart Lake for tomorrow's game at Cossham Street.Lake comes to the Moat Ground from Nuneaton Borough who he joined last October. Before joining Borough Lake had spent nine seasons with Hednesford Town and was their longest serving player.
"Stuart played against us earlier in the season and I was impressed with him, said Norton. "He can pass the ball about, which we've been lacking in midfield."
Gresley could also be without defender Leigh Everitt who faces a late fitness test on his knee injury.
Striker Steve Lenagh, who scored both goals in the 2-0 home win over Mangotsfield, seems to have recovered from his dead leg and Carl Francis has had a further week to help him shake off the effects of tonsillitis and are both included in the squad.
Gresley from: Belford, Wardle, Hood, Cheetham, Smith, Everitt, Lake, Slater, Doughty, Barrett, White, Hall, Lenagh, Francis, Alexander, Sylla, Clarke (gk)
