Trio could miss out for Gills

04 March 2011 14:30
Gillingham manager Andy Hessenthaler has doubts over midfield duo Curtis Weston and Andy Barcham as well as defender Garry Richards for his side's clash with Bradford at Priestfield. Weston is struggling with a groin injury while Barcham sustained an ankle knock playing for the reserves in their midweek draw with Charlton. Richards, meanwhile, has an ankle problem, but while all three players missed training on Thursday, they are expected to be fit to face the Bantams. Hessenthaler has hinted at changes after he complained of a lack of width in the 1-1 draw against Accrington on Tuesday which could mean recalls for midfield trio Mark Bentley, Luke Rooney and Joe Martin as well as forward Dennis Oli. Danny Spiller remains sidelined with a fractured finger but could be back within two weeks and fellow midfielder Chris Palmer is also closing in on a return from the knee injury that has sidelined him since November.
