On-loan duo set to play for Crewe against Carlisle

Posted Friday, February 01, 2019 by PA

Crewe are expected to include loan signings Aaron Taylor-Sinclair and Jamie Sterry in the squad for the Sky Bet League Two match against Carlisle.

Right-back Sterry returns for a second spell with the Railwaymen, while left-back Taylor-Sinclair has joined from Motherwell until the end of the season.

Midfielder James Jones is ruled out with ankle ligament damage, so Paul Green should feature again.

Defender Nicky Hunt, fit from a knee problem, is pressing for a return to action after being an unused substitute in last weekend’s win over Colchester.

Carlisle are also likely to field several new faces following a busy end to the January transfer window.

Forward Mark Cullen arrived on loan from Blackpool until the end of the season, while defender Peter Grant signed a short-term deal after leaving Plymouth.

Aston Villa attacking midfielder Callum O’Hare, 20, has moved to Brunton Park on loan, with winger Nathan Thomas coming in from Sheffield United.

Stefan Scougall has signed a short-term contract after departing St Johnstone to link up again with boss Steven Pressley. Defender Gary Liddle continues his recovery from a knee problem.
