Facey back amid mounting problems for Tilson

17 December 2010 13:30
Lincoln boss Steve Tilson will have returning striker Delroy Facey available for the trip to Aldershot, but he has a host of other problems. Facey could go straight back into the starting line-up after returning from international duty, where he helped Grenada to a fourth-placed finish in the Caribbean Cup. However, Josh Gowling has returned to parent club Gillingham following the expiration of his loan spell while Kern Miller, Andrew Hutchinson and Clark Keltie are all sidelined by injury. Defender Miller, 19, misses out with a broken nose and jaw after being assaulted in Blackpool while waiting for a taxi following a night out, and he may not return to action before his six-month contract expires at the end of December. Hutchinson played an hour for the reserves recently, returning from illness, but is now suffering from a sore hamstring, while the game comes too soon for Keltie (thigh). Paul Green survived an hour of reserve-team action and, despite not yet being fully fit, may be involved due to Tilson`s injury problems.
