Terry Brown is hoping to be able to select Darren Barnard, Gary Holloway and Jonny Dixon (pictured) for the clubs Easter games and expects captain Steve Watson will be back in contention for the visit of Grays Athletic on Easter Monday.

He told the site, "From one point of view it is obvious that we put the youngsters in at the moment because we can gain the most out of it for next year whereas by missing all the senior players you don't always get the best of the youngsters because they need that experience playing along side them too."

Speaking about keeper Nikki Bull, there was no news on the current state of his injury but he went on to say, "If we had risked Nikki for the second half against Cambridge the chances are we would have lost him for the remainder of the season and I didn't want that to happen".
