Chippenham pre-match news
John McGinlay will have a decision to make for tomorrow's match against the team sitting second in the Dr Martens Western Division.
Ian Bluck will not figure in the game as he is suffering from a slight hamstring injury picked up at Ilkeston on Monday. The hamstring has not gone but he will not be risked in case he makes the injury worse he is likely to be out for up to two weeks.

So this gives the manager a dilemma three at the back or flat back four for the game tomorrow that he describes as "very difficult".

Richard Wardle will possibly be asked to drop back into the back line and this would allow Steve Coates to make his debut in midfield.

However, he will not be playing alongside Jake Fairbrother because he is still not ready to return but should play some part in the game against Cirencester Town on Wednesday.

James Lindley was denied his chance to retake the keeper's shirt when the reserves game, in which he was to play, was called off on Thursday. Weather permitting he should have a run out for the reserves at home tomorrow.

Mark Sheils also back in the frame will have to wait his turn. He was due to play in the reserves match tomorrow but will stand down for Lindley.
