Loughborough Dynamo Pre-Match News
Gresley play only their second Saturday league home game of the season as they take on local rivals Loughborough Dynamo at the Moat Ground on Saturday- 3pm.
Joint manager Gary Norton is hoping that his side will 'tighten up a bit in defence' as his side has been leaking a few goals recently saying: "We're shipping a lot of goals and we've got to address it. We knew we had a bit of an Achilles heel in terms of set-plays, but it was disappointing to concede all four from set-plays on Tuesday night at Sutton Coldfield."We'll certainly be working on it on the training ground. The quality of delivery this year is better than in the last two years. More often than not you're getting threatening deliveries and we've got to defend them better.
"We need a run of results. We're winning one and then losing one. Had we managed to get that consistency we'd be higher up than seventh."
Marc Goodfellow will miss Saturday's game due to suspension after receiving five yellow cards. However, Rob Spencer who missed the midweek trip should return. Matt Roome and Aaron Dillon are also available.
Royce Turville is still recovering from a knee injury but could take part in the pre-match warm up.
A familiar face could feature for Dynamo as former Gresley striker David Blenkinsopp is a member of their squad.
Gresley from: Hateley, Woods, Nottingham, Strzyzewski, Gough, Barrett, Jepson, Hanslow, Massingham, Spencer, Holmes, Lyons, Nadat, Minshull, Butler, Dillon, Roome.
