Richie Wellens hopes for illness boost ahead of Fleetwood clash



Posted Sunday, December 24, 2017 by PA

Richie Wellens will be hoping illness in the Rochdale camp will subside ahead of a meeting with Fleetwood.

The Latics were drubbed 4-1 by Plymouth on Saturday and Wellens admitted reserves were running low afterwards.

Eoin Doyle and Kean Bryan were amongst those to miss the trip to Argyle.

"The only positive I can see is we have got another game in a few days. I am hoping to get some players back and they feel better," he said.

Fleetwood defender Cian Bolger is a doubt after being forced off with a knock in Friday's defeat at Gillingham.

Club captain Nathan Pond replaced him on the night and could step in from the start.

Forward Ash Hunter is pushing for a recall to the starting line-up after impressing as a second-half substitute, as is Jack Sowerby.

Baily Cargill and Aiden O'Neill's places are under threat after both were hauled off at half-time, while forward Conor McAleny could be involved in the squad for the first time in two months after an ankle injury.
