Fleetwood Town vs Gillingham - Amadi-Holloway on comeback trail but unlikely to start

Posted Friday, October 28, 2016 by PA

Aaron Amadi-Holloway could be on the bench for Fleetwood against Gillingham.

Boss Uwe Rosler thinks the striker is still some way off a start following a hamstring problem, but he played 60 minutes for the development squad in midweek and may earn a spot among the replacements.

Rosler confirmed Cian Bolger could be drafted into Fleetwood's defence after his two centre-backs were roughed up by Millwall's Steve Morison last weekend.

The Cod Army have scored in every league game so far this term and Rosler has hinted he is thinking about a return to a front three, having experimented with two up top of late.

Gillingham will be without goalkeeper Jonathan Bond, who picked up a groin problem in the first half of last weekend's 1-1 draw against Charlton, so Stuart Nelson is set to deputise.

Defender Ryan Jackson will be assessed after coming off late on with cramp, while captain Josh Wright will be available again following his suspension along with Deji Oshilaja.

Midfielder Scott Wagstaff has been out with a groin problem, while full-back Bradley Garmston has stepped up his rehabilitation after a knee problem.

Defender Aaron Morris (knee) and midfielder Lee Martin (ankle) both continue their recoveries.
