Penney has enjoyed a remarkable recruitment drive this summer which has taken the number of new faces at Boundary Park well into double figures. Midfielder Rob Purdie joined on a free transfer from Darlington but remains sidelined due to a stomach injury which has required surgery. Joe Jacobsen arrived on a free transfer from Bristol Rovers but is currently troubled by a hernia and will similarly play no part. However, the likes of Jon Worthington, Pawel Abbott, Dean Furman, Dean Brill, Andy Holdsworth, Keigan Parker, Rene Steer are Phil Ojapah are available. Alex Marrow this week joined on loan from Blackburn and striker Darren Byfield, left-back Peter Gilbert and goalkeeper Przemyslaw Kazimierczak penned short-term deals.
