Macclesfield boss Keith Alexander believes midfielder Richard Butcher will prove a key figure for his side in the coming weeks. Alexander returned to his former club Lincoln to sign Butcher on a month's emergency loan earlier this week. He scored on his debut for the Silkmen in Tuesday's defeat at Bury and Alexander is confident he will continue to prosper. He said: "We've been struggling in that department so I was pleased to bring him in. "He put in a good, solid performance at Bury and will get better as he gets fitter."
