Sam Slocombe to challenge Grant Smith for Lincoln’s gloves

New Lincoln loan signing Sam Slocombe is pushing fellow goalkeeper Grant Smith for a starting place ahead of the visit of Notts County.

The 30-year-old joined from Bristol Rovers earlier this week and was on the bench for Tuesday’s 2-1 win over Bury, with the club unsure how long a thigh injury will keep out first-choice Josh Vickers.

Manager Danny Cowley is also hoping to bring in a winger before the transfer window closes.

Harry Anderson could get a recall to the starting line-up after coming on at half-time and assisting in their second-half comeback.

County defender Matt Tootle remains a doubt having missed the last three matches with a toe injury.

On-loan Brighton centre-back Ben Hall is still out with a groin problem which had prevented him featuring this season.

Manager Kevin Nolan looks set to make changes after bemoaning poor defending in the 3-2 midweek defeat to Newport which made it 10 goals conceded in three matches.

Nolan is still looking to add to his squad, who are bottom of the table having failed to win so far this season.
