Team News...
Shots caretaker boss Jason Dodd has midfielder Ben Harding available and he is likely to be added to the squad although he will not start. John Halls is currently another two to three weeks away from involvement. Adam HInshelwood has had a scan this week and is due to see a consultant whilst Marvin Morgan is also awaiting a scan. Both are rated as doubts.
Millers manager Ronnie Moore has Nick Fenton back after suspension and may move Pablo Mills back into midfield. Drewe Broughton and Tom Pope are battling for the starting place alongside top scorer Adam Le Fondre in attack as Steve Brogan also pushes hard for a recall after scoring twice in the reserves win at Hartlepool in midweek.
