Swindon wait on Benyon

07 February 2011 16:30
Swindon will assess a host of players including key striker Elliot Benyon ahead of Tuesday`s trip to Leyton Orient. The deadline-day signing netted a late equaliser on his debut against Rochdale on Saturday but also left the pitch nursing a tight hamstring and will be assessed. As will defender Aden Flint who also received a knock on his debut against Dale. Goalkeeper David Lucas - last included in Town`s matchday 18 at the start of December - returned to full training on Monday and manager Danny Wilson will see how he reacts before deciding whether he is ready to be involved. Defender Lecsinel Jean-Francois has missed the club`s last three games with a leg injury while striker Vincent Pericard (knee) has sat out of the last three. Both will be closely monitored although Tuesday is expected to come too soon, with the former expected to return sooner. Young midfielder Billy Bodin (illness) missed out against Bournemouth with an ankle injury before illness ruled him out of Saturday`s 1-1 draw versus Dale. He should be okay to be in contention for the trip to Brisbane Road as Swindon go in search of a much-needed victory.
