BARNET
Barnet welcome back midfielder Lee Flynn as they attempt
to get their fading play-off ambitions back on track
against Scarborough. Flynn missed last week's 1-0 home
loss to Margate due to a one-match suspension. Defenders
Craig Pope and Lee Pluck have suffered no reaction to
injuries and are in contention.

CHESTER
Chester have no new injury problems ahead of the trip to
Dagenham. Midfielder Chris Blackburn is still out of the
reckoning with a knee injury that has kept him sidelined

DAG & RED
Dagenham will again be without injured defenders Mark
Smith and Tim Cole against Chester, and a question mark
hangs over midfielder Mark Janney, who missed last
weekend's game with an ankle injury. Steve West should

makes his 150th appearance.

DONCASTER
Midfield duo Gareth Owen and Jamie Paterson are both set
to miss Doncaster's home clash with Burton having failed
to shake off injuries. Boss Dave Penney said: "We've

too."

FARNBOROUGH
Farnborough's caretaker boss Ian McDonald wants a couple
more league wins to guarantee survival in the Conference.

as possible. We will take each game as it comes but for

they come, the better."

LEIGH
Top scorer Dino Maamria has turned down a move to
Conference rivals Stevenage. The Tunisian striker, who
has scored 13 goals for the Railwaymen so far this

MARGATE
Margate's FA Trophy fifth-round clash with Tamworth will
be played at Hartsdown Park and not Dover's Crabble

Chris Kinnear has urged the club's fans to turn out in
force to cheer his side into the quarter-finals of the
competition.

MORECAMBE
Morecambe manager Jim Harvey has reported a clean bill of
health ahead of the trip to Woking, with only the
suspended Jim Bentley unavailable for selection. The loss

spirits.

NUNEATON
Nuneaton manager Steve Burr hopes to add "quality
players" to his injury-hit squad as Boro attempt to
haul themselves away from the Conference danger zone. The
club are currently languishing just one point and one
place above the relegation places, and that led to a
meeting this week between Burr and chairman Roger
Stanford.

Jason Goodliffe is a doubt for Stevenage ahead of their
trip to Hereford. The defender has not featured since the
2-1 defeat at Gravesend three weeks ago due to a thigh
problem. Boss Graham Westley said: "It's a tough
match. Not many teams go up there and go away with three
points."

Telford will be without suspended midfielder Martin
Barlow for the match against Gravesend, but Grant Brown
and Jordan King have recovered from injury. Boss Jake
King said: "We're itching to get a good home result.

not the best."

WOKING
Woking will have midfielder Neil Smith available for the
home game against play-off-chasing Morecambe after he was
suspended for last week's defeat by Gravesend following a
sending-off. Striker Warren Patmore is likely to be in
the starting line-up after coming through the game
unscathed following a twisted knee.

YEOVIL
Yeovil boss Gary Johnson has described Doncaster as
"a danger" to their title hopes as the
Yorkshire outfit have two games in hand. The Glovers are
in FA Trophy action this weekend, allowing Rovers the

the top to nine.
