Stourbridge pre-match news
Manager Gary Norton will use tomorrow's friendly at the Moat Ground to help him finalise his squad for the new UniBond Division One South season.
Said Norton: "We are looking at putting a squad together of about 18 or 19, but we may go above that as there are some players who we think have great potential who we may sign and send out on loan at the start of the season."Midfielder Tom Betteridge and left back Nicky Carter have both signed along with Martyn Rowntree who has agreed terms.
Carl Timms has also signed as a squad player but will probably be sent out on loan. Striker Ravi Sangha, who has been training with Willenhall because of work commitments, is also available.
Former Hednesford Town central defender Luke Falmer is expected to feature tomorrow but Tom Betteridge is a major doubt after limping off the field with a hamstring injury against Bolehall Swifts.
Morgan Hurley, who has impressed so far in the pre-season games, is also a doubt, as he also had to leave last night's game after just eight minutes due to a hamstring injury.
Both Nicky Carter and Andy Simpson will miss the Stourbridge game with the former on holiday.
