Carlton Boulevarde saw just 16 players train yesterday ahead of the Hereford game. Alas Adam Watts was forced off late at Northampton Town on Monday with a knee problem whilst Danny Hone is cup-tied after playing in the competition this season during a loan spell at Darlington.
Gavin Hoyte could switch to the middle but he is nursing a knock, as is another option Paul Green. Josh O`Keefe also has a tight hamstring after training on Thursday and the midfielder is a doubt.
The Imps should not feel too downbeat with wise and Holy Moses Swaibu starting to grin again after a turbulent Christmas. The man with the telescopic tackle is believed to be looking forward to a duel with a certain prize Bull as the Imps players continue their silence.
Nothing wrong with building a wall and adopting a seige mentality lads - the fans want to see you play and talk appears to be the only cheap thing nowadays.
