Colin Hoyle will face a fitness test before tonight's game against Ossett Albion having suffered a slight calf muscle tear, as well as a dead leg on Saturday.

Manager Gary Norton said: "He responded to treatment, he wants to play and he thinks he will be able to play. He will have a fitness test tonight, but he is a massive influence on us as captain and I am relatively confident he will take to the field."

Gary White who had to receive hospital treatment on an ankle injury is fit to play having recovered from what was discovered to be just soft tissue damage.

Striker Aaron O'Connor, who has been forced to sit out the last two games with the recurrence of the ankle injury, is also desperate to play, but Norton is also likely to assess his fitness tonight before making a decision.

Two new signings could make their debuts in tonight's game. Nick Guislanzoni, signed from South Normanton Athletic, could start in midfield while 20-year-old former Eastwood Town striker Ady Francis could also make his debut if O'Connor is not risked.

Gresley from: Whittle, Spencer, G White, Simpson, Hoyle, Holmes, Slater, Edwards, O'Connor, Sangha, Betteridge, Barrett, Hemmings, Gomm, Ridgway, Guislanzoni, Francis.
