Walsall captain Dobson in line for start against Bristol Rovers
Posted Sunday, December 23, 2018 by PA
Captain George Dobson could be ready to start when Walsall host Bristol Rovers in League One action on Boxing Day.
Dobson was fit enough for a seat on the bench in Saturday’s 1-1 draw at Peterborough having been sidelined in recent weeks.
Josh Ginnelly could miss out again for the Saddlers having been omitted from the weekend’s Peterborough draw.
The winger is the subject of a transfer bid from Preston, and that led manager Dean Keates to withdraw him from Saturday’s squad.
Graham Coughlan should still be in caretaker charge when Bristol Rovers make the trip to the Midlands.
Relegation-battling Rovers were boosted by James Clarke’s added-time winner in Saturday’s 2-1 victory over Fleetwood, who had striker Ched Evans sent off.
Coughlan has stepped into the breach after Darrell Clarke left the club, and could now take the reins for a third match.
Striker Gavin Reilly could retain his starting berth after finding the net on Saturday.
