Gavin Gunning suspended for Forest Green game against Stevenage
Posted Monday, August 20, 2018 by PA
Forest Green Rovers will be without captain Gavin Gunning as they welcome League Two high-flyers Stevenage to the New Lawn.
Gunning was sent off with 15 minutes remaining of their match against Bury, in which they conceded a 90th-minute equaliser.
That will force Rovers manager Mark Cooper into at least one change. He was unhappy with their performance against Bury and so may look to make more tweaks to his side.
“Individually players have got to do better,” Cooper said after the Bury draw.
Stevenage sit third in the League Two table and head to Forest Green with both sides looking to preserve an unbeaten league record.
Manager Dino Maamria hinted he would have to assess the fitness of his squad as they face their fourth game in 10 days.
“The games are coming thick and fast,” Maamria said. “We have got to be careful, we have to make sure everybody is fit, everybody is hungry, everybody is determined.”
Striker Ben Kennedy is pushing for a start after impressing off the bench in their weekend win against Morecambe.
