TOWN’S TEAM vs. GILLINGHAM

Posted on: Sat 12 Dec 2009

Town boss Lee Clark has made one change to the starting eleven for today's League One game at home to Gillingham, kick-off 3pm.

With winger Anthony Pilkington suspended after accumulating five yellow cards throughout the season, Lionel Ainsworth gets another chance to impress on the right side as his replacement. This frees up a place for first-year professional Jack Hunt among the substitutes - it is Jack's first appearance in the matchday eighteen on home soil and it will be his professional debut if he gets on the pitch today.

Michael Collins and Antony Kay will form the central midfield duo with wingers Gary Roberts and Ainsworth on the left and right flanks respectively, leaving top scorer Jordan Rhodes to partner the in-form Lee Novak up front.
