Yate pre-match news
Gresley Rovers will be fielding a new striker for the visit to Yate Town.
Former Nuneaton and Hinckley forward Derek Sinclair has signed and is included in the squad.

Manager Gary Norton said: "Derek has got a good touch and awareness but is not quite match fit so he will probably start on the bench. Laurence Hall is due to play his last game for us tomorrow and that would have left us with only Carl Francis and Steve Lenagh as recognized strikers. We needed someone to fill the void and Derek will get his chance in the next few games."

On-loan Laurence Hall is in the squad for the last game before returning to Stoke City.

Carl Francis is struggling with a slight hamstring pull picked up in training.

Midfielder Gareth Holmes has now completed his three game suspension and is in the squad.

Leigh Everitt will have a run in the reserves has he recovers from a knee injury that has kept him out of the last few games.

Gary White is suspended after picking up five bookings.

Gresley from: Belford, Wardle, Hood, Smith, Cheetham, Haynes, Barrett, Slater, Holmes, Alexander, Doughty, Lake, Lenagh, Francis, Hall, Sinclair.
