GOALKEEPER Dave Adey should be back in the starting line-up for Redditch United when they head for Gloucester City (3pm).

Ligament trouble with his hand had forced the former Solihull player to miss out on Reds' last few games with teenager Mark Shiels taking over between the posts.

Although the 17-year-old has been in sparkling form, assistant boss Larry Chambers believes it is time for him to take a break.

"He may be due for a rest. He has been good in the games he has played and has learnt more in those matches than in a whole season with the reserves."

Defender Lee Knight and striker Nicky Cross both have niggling injuries but should be fit allowing Chambers and boss Rob Smith to choose from full-strength squad.

Redditch (from): Adey, Hamilton, Hall, Jackson, Knight, Brown, Mitchell, Reece, Colcombe, Myers, Nicholls, Swann, Brennan, Bennett, Cross, Danks.
