Match Preview
Luxury of riches for Buckle Torquay boss Paul Buckle has a full-strength squad to choose from for the home clash against Lincoln. The Gulls are boosted by the return of three players who have enjoyed brief cameo appearances away from Plainmoor. On-loan Ipswich striker Ronan Murray is back after featuring for the Republic of Ireland`s Under-21s in Portugal. And promising youngsters Saul Halpin and Lathaniel Rowe-Turner are ready for selection after appearing in action for Derby's reserve side. Halpin impressed County manager Nigel Clough by hitting a hat-trick and setting up a goal in the 7-1 victory over Nottingham Forest. Buckle's side are unbeaten in five matches and sit just one point off the play-offs and only four points behind Shrewsbury, who occupy the third automatic promotion place. Lincoln will monitor Danny Hone and Ashley Grimes ahead of the match. Defender Hone joined an already-lengthy injury list when he damaged a shoulder during the defeat at Port Vale in midweek. However, the problem is not as bad as initially feared and he could be patched up in time for the game in Devon. Leading scorer Grimes has missed the last two matches but his ankle injury is improving all the time and there is a chance that he could travel. With Stephen Hunt (ankle), Luke Howell (hamstring) and Delroy Facey (shoulder) still out, boss Steve Tilson has recalled experienced striker Drewe Broughton from his loan spell at AFC Wimbledon to boost numbers.

Match Report
Stanley steers Gulls back into top seven Torquay`s on-loan Morecambe midfielder Craig Stanley was the architect of a 2-0 victory over Lincoln as they moved back into the play off zone. Stanley slotted through a superb ball to set up second-half goals for both strikers Chris Zebroski and Gavin Tomlin. Zebroski raced through to round City keeper Elliott Parish in the 74th minute and coolly slot home to put Paul Buckle's side ahead after they peppered the Lincoln goal with a string of second-half strikes. Impressive Stanley also proved provider as on-loan Dagenham & Redbridge forward Tomlin superbly slotted away United's second goal in the 84th minute with his left foot following an audacious stepover to wrong foot his markers and keeper Parish. Zebroski could have doubled his tally in between both goals with a thumping 78th-minute strike that beat the diving Parish but crashed off the inside of the post before rolling across the goal-line. However United did not have it all their own way and Ben Hutchinson was denied from point-blank range in the 70th minute when Gulls keeper Scott Bevan made a brilliant save. But United were not going to be denied and after Bevan's super stop went on the front foot to secure their 10th home win of the season.
