JAN Molby's promotion-chasing squad will be put to the test during a hectic Division Three run-in after a string of postponements.

Kidderminster Harriers' visit to Swansea City on Saturday bit the dust on the morning of the match due to the wet weather.

So boss Molby's return to the Vetch Field has been rearranged along with the games against Halifax, Cheltenham and Macclesfield.

Harriers will be playing two games a week for much of the final two-and-a-half months as the play-off race draws to a conclusion.

They now head to Swansea next Tuesday, host Macclesfield on Tuesday, February 19, go to Halifax on Tuesday, March 12, and to Cheltenham on Tuesday, March 26.

Another big fixture for the club is the U-18s' record-breaking FA Youth Cup fifth round tie at giants Nottingham Forest.

Harriers play Forest on Wednesday, February 20, from 7pm and could be travelling to Everton or Manchester City if they create a major shock by winning.

Meanwhile, Harriers have still been coming to terms with the news of defender Parfait Medou-Otye's retirement due to a rare heart condition.

Medou-Otye, a free transfer from Partick Thistle, has been diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

It is a rare condition where the wall of the heart becomes thickened.

Medou-Otye will return to France within the next few weeks and rest from football for the next six to 12 months.

He built up a reputation as an uncompromising defender, racking up five yellow cards and a red in his 22 games.

But off the field the 25-year-old proved a popular figure, helping to coach youngsters in Kidderminster in his spare time.

Medou-Otye said: "It has come as a big shock for me as football has always been my life.

"I was very happy at Kidderminster and had hoped to stay but I now have my health to consider.

"I'd like to thank Jan and his backroom staff for all their help and support, the players and, of course, the fans.

"I will miss everyone but I wish everyone well and I hope that Kidderminster go on and win promotion this season."
