Parnaby in Pools picture
Hartlepool summer signing Stuart Parnaby could return to contention for the home game against Shrewsbury.
Former Middlesbrough defender Parnaby has missed the last two games due to a hamstring injury sustained in the recent home defeat to Dagenham.
Pools will be without teenage striker Luke James, who completed his permanent move this week to Peterborough for an undisclosed fee, so Charlie Wyke is likely to continue up front alongside Marlon Harewood.
Midfielder Lewis Hawkins is closing in on a return from an ankle injury that has kept him out of the last two matches, but this game could come too soon as Pools chase their second win of the season.
Shrewsbury captain Liam Lawrence is available after serving his three-game ban for a red card against Northampton last month.
Dave McAllister and Mark Ellis are both available after injury with Town looking to respond after losing their first game of the season at Preston in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy on Tuesday.
Striker James Collins is likely to be recalled after starting on the bench for the defeat at Deepdale.
Josh Ginnelly is also expected to be included after the 17-year-old made his debut in last week's 2-0 win over Luton.
