Newport County vs Exeter City - Rhys Healey set for Newport swansong



Posted Friday, December 30, 2016 by PA

Loan striker Rhys Healey makes his final appearance for Newport against Exeter before returning to parent club Cardiff.

Exiles boss Graham Westley must decide whether to stick with a three-man central defence or revert to a back four and choose between Darren Jones and Abdoulaye Meite to partner captain Scot Bennett in the middle.

Joss Labadie is ruled out out of the Sky Bet League Two clash with a knee injury sustained against Plymouth in the FA Cup.

Long-term absentees Lenell John-Lewis and Jamie Turley are still sidelined.

Exeter midfielder Lee Holmes looks set to miss out after suffering a Boxing Day injury at Yeovil.

Holmes left Huish Park on crutches and with his foot in a surgical boot after a collision with Glovers goalkeeper Artur Krysiak.

Full-back Craig Woodman is also doubtful after being forced off at Yeovil with a groin injury.

Ryan Harley and Joel Grant are set to deputise, while striker Liam McAlinden is also pushing for a starting spot after impressing as a second-half substitute on Boxing Day.
