Top scorer David Blenkinsopp will be included in the squad for tomorrows game against Colwyn Bay after coming through a training session on Thursday without any reaction to the cracked foot that has kept him out of the team for the last 6 games.

Manager Gary Norton commented: "Davd came through last nights training session without any adverse reaction in his foot which is great news.

"He was striking the ball well and has reported no discomfort overnight so we are delighted to have him back available in the squad.

"David is desperate to play in the remaining two games of the season even though we have little other than pride to play for. I have yet to decide if he starts but he will certainly be in the 14."

Jamie Hood meanwhile will undergo a prematch fitness test to see if he has recovered sufficiently from the groin injury that forced him off the pitch in the last game at Sheffield FC whilst the manager is awaiting news on Brian Woodall recovery from a virus that he picked up in the week.

Norton ruled out the involvement of Carl Slater for tomorrows final home game of the season after the midfielder did not show up for training.
