Burch may make Trophy return

31 August 2010 15:00
Goalkeeper Rob Burch could return to the Notts County squad for the trip to Sheffield Wednesday in the Johnstone`s Paint Trophy. The summer signing from Lincoln has not played since the opening day of the season due to a toe problem. Manager Craig Short must decide whether Burch goes straight back into the team or starts the first round tie on the substitute's bench. Defender Stephen Hunt and midfielder Neal Bishop are nursing knocks and may miss out. Short may decide to start with Kevin Smith following the striker's two goals in his last two games, while Luke Hubbins and Jake Jervis could also start at Hillsborough. Lee Hughes could come back into contention for the league visit of Yeovil at the weekend after missing the last four matches with a groin problem.
