Ossett Albion pre-match news
For tomorrow's first match in the UniBond Premier League Division One against Ossett Albion, manager Gary Norton has included in his squad the seven summer signings.
The only doubt is Aaron O'Connor who is suffering from a chest infection.Norton did think he would lose the services of Liam Hebberd sent off in a pre-season friendly at Leek Town but the suspension does not start until September 21st.
The two central defenders Matt Smith and Jamie Hood could also feature after recovering from injury. Smith was suffering from a slight Achilles problem picked up in the friendly against Stapenhill and Hood, who has missed most of the pre-season games was suffering a knee injury. Norton is confident that both players are fit enough to start if selected.
Gresley from: Belford, Wardle, Hood, Smith, G White, Dodd, O'Connor, Gummer, Brown, Simpson, Barrett, Slater, Justin Rowe, Hebberd, Ejiofor.
