George Abbey is likely to make his first start of the season in the match against Millwall on Saturday. With Baudet and O’Donnell ruled out he will is in contention to partner Chris McCready at the heart of the defence.

Abbey replaced the injured Baudet at Doncaster and with not many other alternatives it look as if the former Port Vale man will get the nod.

Tom Pope could also be recalled to the side after being rested in recent weeks. We have missed an aerial presence and he could be drafted in to partner Lee Barnard.

Meanwhile, Millwall have signed former Rotherham hot shot Will Hoskins on a month’s loan deal. He will go straight in to the side that visits the Alexandra Stadium.

They have also extended the loan deal of Jamie O’Hara, O’Hara is well know to Barnard as they both were in the same Tottenham reserve side last season.
