Gilligan injury problem for Town

Gilligan scored his ninth goal of the season in the 2-1 win at Darlington on Tuesday night but then came off with a groin strain and he is a doubt to face the Brewers.Former Coventry man Kevin Thornton came on to replace Gilligan and make his debut and is an option to start, while John Curtis could also come in alongside Abdul Osman.On-loan Middlesbrough full-back John Johnson is also a doubt after he complained of a dead leg so Paul Rodgers is on standby to return to the back four.Steve Guinan (hernia) and Liam Davis (foot) remain definite absentees as Sampson looks to extend his side's unbeaten record to nine games.
