Yates waits on Braham-Barrett

Cheltenham will assess Craig Braham-Barrett ahead of the visit of Morecambe.


The Robins looked to be on course for a much-needed three points until two late goals from Rochdale earned the visitors a 2-1 win and it was during that defeat that left-back Braham-Barrett picked up a facial injury which the club will monitor.


But manager Mark Yates has no other injury or suspension worries as his side look for just their third victory since August.


Yates could chose to freshen his side up for their second match in four days with the likes of David Noble, Terry Gornell and Ashley Vincent waiting in the wings.


Morecambe boss Jim Bentley must continue to deal with a depleted squad.


Marcus Marshall has failed to recover from a hamstring injury, while Chris McCready is still missing with an ankle knock.


Striker Jack Redshaw has been ruled out for a least a month with a hip injury.


However despite his skeletal squad, Bentley will hope the Shrimps will be able to continue their nine-match unbeaten run that has seen them rise to sixth in Sky Bet League 2, one point off the top of the table.
