Richardson misses out for Rotherham

Rotherham are likely to be without Frazer Richardson again when Fleetwood visit the New York.

Right-back Richardson missed Saturday's opening-day defeat at Derby with a foot injury and is still struggling.

Febian Brandy and Mark Bradley are also set to miss out. Brandy is not match fit while Bradley is a long-term absentee due to a knee problem.

Boss Steve Evans, who has instigated a blackout against several factions of the media, could change things around, with Jordan Bowery, John Swift and Ryan Hall all hoping for a start.

Fleetwood manager Graham Alexander has confirmed Stephen Dobbie will miss the trip to Rotherham.

The 31-year-old, who is on-loan from Crystal Palace, was substituted at half-time of Saturday's 2-1 home win against Crewe after failing to overcome an earlier injury.

Jamie Proctor could be in line to start after putting in an eye-catching debut, but apart from that Alexander has no other selection concerns.

Newcastle loanee Adam Campbell may be recalled after the teenager was an unused substitute over the weekend.
