Oldham Athletic AFC vs Mansfield Town - Jay Fulton cup tied

Posted Monday, November 16, 2015 by PA

Jay Fulton will be unavailable for Oldham's FA Cup replay against Mansfield.

The on-loan Swansea midfielder has not been given permission to feature in this competition and although he started on the bench in the league at the weekend, it was his introduction that helped turn the Chesterfield game on its head.

Mike Jones and Jake Cassidy (both ankle) are progressing well in their recoveries but remain out along with last year's top scorer Jonathan Forte (knee).

Giorgio Rasulo, whose introduction was also key to Latics' win on Saturday, is pushing for a starting berth.

Mansfield will be without the suspended Chris Clements at SportsDirect.com Park.

The midfielder received his fifth yellow card of the season during the league loss at Northampton on Saturday and he must serve a one-match ban.

Stags boss Adam Murray has options available to replace Clement in the middle of the park with Nathan Thomas, Jack Thomas and Jamie McGuire the alternatives.

Any other changes will be kept to a minimum but Matty Blair and Adi Yussuf will be hoping Murray might opt to freshen up his attack.
