York City vs AFC Wimbledon - Russ Penn set to miss York's clash with AFC Wimbledon
Posted Friday, October 23, 2015 by PA
York are once again likely to be without midfielder Russ Penn as they look to end a run of eight League Two Games without a win against AFC Wimbledon at Bootham Crescent.
Penn sustained a hamstring injury against Barnet last weekend which ruled him out of the midweek draw with Dagenham and Saturday is set to be too soon for a return.
Eddie Nolan is to continue to deputise for Penn while Reece Thompson is pushing for a return after sitting out the action on Tuesday night with a virus.
Jake Hyde is still up to three weeks away from fitness following a double hernia operation, while Luke Summerfield remains boss Russ Wilcox's only long-term absentee.
AFC Wimbledon's Andy Barcham faces four to six weeks out after scans showed his knee injury is not as bad as first feared.
Barcham suffered a medial ligament injury, rather than a cruciate ligament problem, which could have kept him out for six months.
Goalkeeper James Shea is out for two to three weeks with a groin injury.
Ben Wilson, who joined on loan from Cardiff prior to the game at Accrington, will likely continue in goal.
