Michael O’Connor Notts County’s only absentee
Posted Friday, February 23, 2018 by PA
Notts County boss Kevin Nolan has just one player unavailable for Saturday’s home League One tie with Stevenage.
Midfielder Michael O’Connor is ruled out due to a knee injury, although the Northern Irishman has returned to training.
The home side are looking to bounce back from the midweek defeat to Cambridge and Nolan wants more players to chip in with goals to aid top scorer Jorge Grant.
Grant has scored 17 times in 43 games since joining on loan from city rivals Nottingham Forest, but has found the net just once in 2018.
Stevenage boss Darren Sarll will hope to have Matt Godden and Ron Henry available again for the trip to Meadow Lane.
Both players missed last week’s 4-1 win over Yeovil but will be given as long as possible to prove their fitness.
Sarll has been boosted by the return to training of Chris Whelpdale and Ben Sheaf following lengthy injury lay-offs.
Whelpdale has not played since the end of December and Sheaf since earlier the same month, but both are targeting a place in the squad.
