Accrington, WHO ARE THEY??? Well theyre tomorrows visitors to Millmoor in their first league visit for getting up for 60 years.. However they know Millmoor as they pushed us to a 2-2 draw in the AutoWindsreens JPT thing a couple of years ago..
Mark Robins will be running a fitness test on Derek Holmes who missed Tuesdays defeat at Bradford after suffering an ankle injury and Ian Sharps is set to return to the team after illness. Other than that, there is a clean bill of health apart from the long term injured.
After suffering 5 defeats in the last 7 games, the Millers desperately need to get back on winning ways and will be wanting to impress at home.
Speaking to
RotherFM.co.uk boss Mark Robins said; "I think that they are a side that are workmanlike, they have some good players within the ranks and again you expect a tough game."
"I think if we play anything like tuesday night, barring the mistakes, I think that we would go on and win more games than we do, from now to the end of the season. so we will be foucusing on ourselves and makin sure that we the same standards that we reach the other night in terms of attacking play, and we better ourselves when teams are attacking us."
"We have got to get back to winning ways, we have got to start picking points and getting back to the mean defence that we had for most of the season." he added.
On loan Andy Todd won't be allowed to face his monther club, "No he wont play, hes not allowed to play, so he doesnt come in to the equasion, but he is there till the end of the season, but we will expect a tough game regardless of who they put out." Robins said
"The last month has been poor for us in terms of picking up points but we played better on Tuesday and there were some good signs from the strikers." he told the Star
Accy boss John Coleman has 21 year old striker Andy Mangan back at the club on loan after he left Stanley to join Bury in the summer,
Coleman had been hoping to sign defender Paulo Monteiro from Charlton, but internation clearance has not been given as yet so Coleman will look elsewhere.
