Barnet V Bristol Rovers - view commentary, squad, and statistics of the game live.Gavin Hoyte available for Barnet's clash with Bristol RoversBarnet manager Martin Allen has confirmed that defender Gavin Hoyte will not be going out on loan and will be available to face Bristol Rovers on Saturday.Hoyte had been made available for either loan or a permanent transfer but due to a defensive shortage Allen has made it clear he will be staying at the club for now.Centre-back Michael Nelson was ruled out for three months with a shoulder injury in December leaving only two fit centre-backs at the club and goalkeeper Graham Stack (groin) is a long-term absentee.Allen said: "At the moment we've only got two here so we'll have to wrap up them in cotton wool and keep them fit but the rest of it I think the players are interchangeable and can play in different positions."Rovers must fill the striking hole left by Rory Gaffney's return to Cambridge.Gaffney scored five goals in a highly successful seven-game loan spell at Rovers, but Cambridge boss Shaun Derry has said there in no prospect of the Irish forward making a permanent switch to the Memorial Stadium.Jemaine Easter and Ellis Harrison are both in contention to replace Gaffney and link up alongside 14-goal Matty Taylor as the fifth-placed Pirates seek to continue their march up the League Two table.Apart from Gaffney, Rovers boss Darrell Clarke is expected to name the same side that beat Luton 2-0 last weekend for a fifth win in six games.
