Market Drayton Town Pre-Match News
Gresley manager Martin Rowe says his players will be looking to avenge the disappointing end to their last meeting with Market Drayton which was at the Moat Ground at the end of December.
Front man Yannick Makota deliberately punched the ball into the net in the second minute of added on time which was amazingly missed by both referee and his assistant although everyone else in the ground saw the offence clearly denying Gresley a fully deserved three points.Rowe will be without Rob Spencer who will miss the next two games due to business commitments and Lucas Harrison who is suspended for the second of his two game ban.
Liam Guest is out with a shoulder injury meaning Mitch Hanson could retain the center back slot alongside Jamie Barrett.
Defender Marc Strzyzewski is rated as only fifty-fifty but striker Zibusiso Nyatito comes back into the squad.
This game will kick off at 3.07pm following a one minute's silence as a mark of respect for the 25th anniversary of the Hillsborough tragedy.
