ACCRINGTON
STANLEY
Manager John Coleman will be without influential duo Dean
Calcutt and Paul Cook for the visit of Margate. Winger
Calcutt and midfielder Cook picked up one and three-match
suspensions respectively following recent dismissals, and
their absence will be felt in midfield. Coleman said:
"It's not ideal, but we've got a big squad and no
injury problems to worry about."

ALDERSHOT
Manager Terry Brown will throw Dean Hammond straight into
the squad for the clash with high-flying Shrewsbury. The
20-year-old midfielder has signed for the Shots on a
one-month loan from Brighton. Defender Jim Rodwell has
passed a fitness test on his groin, but Roscoe D'Sane and
Nick Roddis are both sus-pended.

BARNET
Bees boss Martin Allen has reported a clean bill of
health ahead of his side's tough trip to Stevenage
Borough. Striker Giuliano Grazioli suffered no
ill-effects from his outing last weekend against
Accrington Stanley after recovering from ankle trouble
and could line up in an unchanged Bees side. Allen said:
"We have got no injury worries. We'll be at full
strength."

BURTON ALBION
Barry Williams is out of Burton's trip to Telford with a
groin injury, but Darren Wassall returns. Williams lasted
the whole of Albion's win against Woking but is now
struggling to shake off the problem, while Wassall missed
the game with a tight ham-string but should be fit.
Christian Moore begins a three-game ban, and Andy Ducros
remains on the sidelines with a calf injury.

CHESTER CITY
Chester manager Mark Wright will again be without
long-term injury victims Scott Guyett and Daryl Clare for
the visit of Halifax. Guyett (groin) and Clare (knee) are
coming along nicely on the road to recovery, but Wright
still believes it will be "two, two and a half weeks
before we see them again".

DAGENHAM & REDBRIDGE
Garry Hill is facing up
to the prospect of being without six key players for the
trip to Northwich Victoria. Lee Goodwin (ankle), Jimmy
Jackson (foot), Danny Shipp (calf), Mark Smith (ankle)
and Mark Stein (hamstring) are all high-ly unlikely to
feature, while Ashley Vickers is suspended. Hill said:
"It's tough but we'll have a roll call later and see
what's what."

EXETER
In-form Exeter will wait on a late fitness check on
Brazilian centre-back Santos Gaia ahead of their trip to
Forest Green Rovers. City boss Eamonn Dolan reports that
Gaia has an ankle injury but is hoping the skilful
defender will recover in time. Grecians ace James
Coppinger (knee) will also have a late fitness test, but
defender Alex Jeannin is ruled out through suspension.

FARNBOROUGH
Rock-bottom Farnborough could welcome back experienced
striker Ken Charlery for the trip to Woking. Charlery has
been on the sidelines after sustaining a thigh injury in
the 1-1 draw against Barnet in August. However, the
former Boston and Dagenham marksman is back in full
training and will be given until the very last minute to
prove his fitness.

FOREST GREEN
Colin Addison is again battling to have new sign-ings
Jamie Moralee and Richard Kennedy available for the clash
with Exeter. Moralee and Kennedy, who have both been
playing for Welsh side Barry Town, agreed terms with
Rovers last week and have been training with the squad
this week - but are still awaiting international
clearance. Gareth Stoker remains on the sidelines with a
dislocated shoulder.

GRAVESEND & NORTHFLEET
Manager Andy Ford is facing the possibility of being
without four key players for the visit of Leigh RMI to
Stonebridge Road. Andy Drury (ankle), Paul Wilkerson
(ankle) and Robin Trott (foot) are all missing with
long-term injuries. Francis Duku aggravated his thigh
injury on his first-team return at Scarborough last week
and is struggling to be fit in time.

HALIFAX TOWN
Halifax Town manager Chris Wilder will have a
full-strength squad to select from for the tough trip to
Chester. Darren Hockenhull (medial ligament injury) and
Jon Cullen (groin and rib problems) have been passed fit
after struggling in the early part of the week, while the
rest of the squad is also in good shape.

HEREFORD UNITED
Bulls manager Graham Turner is likely to keep faith with
the same 16 who were on duty for the 5-0 win at
Farnborough last weekend for the visit of Scarborough.
Turner was hoping striker Danny Carey-Bertram would have
been fit enough to return to the squad after he missed
the last three games with a hamstring injury, but he has
not recovered in time.

LEIGH RMI
Boss Mark Patterson has two new signings at his dis-posal
ahead of the trip to Gravesend & Northfleet.
Patterson has brought in Andy Roscoe on a two-year
contract, while Martyn Forrest has arrived from Third
Division Bury on a three-month loan. Patterson said:
"They will give us a bit more balance and
experi-ence - particularly down the left-hand side."

Chris Kinnear is again without Jean-Michel Sigere and
Bill Edwards ahead of the trip to Accrington Stanley, but
hopes to field an otherwise full-strength side. Sigere
and Edwards have long-standing knee injuries, although
they are both nearing full fit-ness again and could be
back in a fortnight, while Jake Leberl is also struggling
with a back injury.

MORECAMBE
Forward Adriano Rigoglioso is ruled out of Morecambe's
trip to Tamworth through suspension. Rigoglioso was sent
off in the Shrimps' 2-1 defeat at Telford and now begins
a three-game ban. Recent signing Ryan Sugden could take
his place in attack. Midfielder Gary Thompson, who missed
last week's victory against Aldershot with a bruised
foot, has resumed training and should be fit to

Northwich Victoria squad ahead of the clash with Dagenham
& Redbridge. Davis also admitted he is happy with the
impact new signings Mark Barnard and Ryan-Zico Black have
made since their arrival last week. He said: "It's a
bit early to be judging but the signs are good."

SCARBOROUGH
Boss Russell Slade is again without first-choice keeper
Adam Sollitt for the trip to Hereford. Sollitt missed the
Gravesend clash with a cracked bone, so Leigh Walker will
contin-ue in goal with third-choice netminder Gareth
Downey out with mumps. Clayton Donaldson may return from
injury, but David Pounder (knee) and Jacques Williams
(broken rib) are out.

Manager Jimmy Quinn is
sweating on the fit-ness of Jamie Tolley ahead of the
trip to Aldershot and will give him until the last
possible moment to prove his fitness. Tolley turned his
ankle in the win over Tamworth last weekend, and has an
outside chance of playing. Dave Edwards has been ruled
out, although his toe is not broken. Scott Howie retains
his spot in goal.

STEVENAGE BOROUGH
Stevenage boss Graham Westley has an injury crisis ahead
of the visit of Barnet, with almost three quar-ters of
his first-team squad either doubtful or definitely out.
Westley said: "On Tuesday I had seven players out of
a squad of 24 turn up to training. It would be quicker to
go through those that are fit to play." Dino Maamria
is struggling with a hamstring strain.

Boss Darron Gee hopes to be able to field three new
signings for Tamworth's clash with Morecambe. Gee has
snapped up youngsters Lewis Hunt from Derby and Kelvin
Langmead from Preston on loan deals. The Tamworth boss is
also hoping to tie up a third, as yet unnamed, signing.
Mark Turner (heel) and Tom Jordan (ankle) are definitely
out.

TELFORD
Telford manager Mick
Jones has doubts over strikers Neil Howarth and Lee Mills
ahead of the visit of Burton. Howarth, sent off during
the 1-1 draw at Dagenham last week, has a groin strain
while Mills has a knee injury. Scott Eustace, whom Jones
describes as "champing at the bit", and Michael
Blackwood are standing by to deputise.

WOKING
Glenn Cockerill has only
Neil Sharp ruled out for Woking's derby against
rock-bottom Farnborough. The defender has been out for
the last three weeks with an ankle injury, which flared
up in training at the beginning of the week. Cockerill
said: "It's a derby and the form book goes out of
the window, but we'll approach it like any other
game."
