Roche and Tutte in contention for Morecambe
Posted Friday, November 09, 2018 by PA
Morecambe have Barry Roche and Andrew Tutte available for Saturday’s FA Cup first-round clash with Halifax at the Globe Arena.
Goalkeeper Roche could return having missed last weekend’s 2-1 Sky Bet League Two win over Yeovil due to a thigh strain.
Midfielder Tutte has overcome a calf problem and was involved in Tuesday’s Central League Cup win at Macclesfield. That game also saw forward Garry Thompson, who had not played for the Shrimps since April having ruptured his Achilles tendon, complete the full duration.
Recent signing Florent Cuvelier is a doubt after being on the end of a heavy tackle in that match, while James Sinclair (ankle), Andy Fleming and Lamin Jagne (both knee) remain sidelined.
National League outfit Halifax will be without suspended midfielder Matty Kosylo.
Forward Jordan Preston has been nursing a muscle strain and will be assessed ahead of the contest.
Michael Duckworth (ankle), James Berrett (leg) and Ben Tomlinson (knee) are all ruled out.
Halifax are 16th in the National League and have not won any of their last 12 matches in the division.
