Smith returns to boost Glovers

17 December 2010 11:30
Yeovil manager Terry Skiverton welcomes back midfielder Nathan Smith from suspension for the visit of Carlisle. Smith should return to the Glovers squad after he missed the FA Cup defeat to Hartlepool following a one-match ban for picking up five yellow cards. Defenders Paul Huntington (rib) and Adam Virgo (knee) missed the defeat to Hartlepool after they picked up injuries in the goalless draw with Colchester and are major doubts. Fellow defender Stefan Stam is struggling with a hamstring injury with Leicester loanee Tom Parkes and Luke Ayling likely to continue in defence if the trio fail to prove their fitness. On-loan Ivan Sproule should return to boost Yeovil's attacking options after his parent club Bristol City refused permission for him to play in the FA Cup while striker Craig Calver impressed after coming off the bench in midweek and is pushing for a starting place.
