On Ben Purrington’s health…

“It’s going to be tight (for Ben to play on Monday), we hope (he will). He woke up this morning with a sickness bug so he obviously couldn’t play. We sent him home, so we’re hoping he recovers in time for Monday.”

On if Lewis Page will play…

“If not (Ben) then Pagey will definitely be in. We’ve got no choice, obviously Solly is now suspended and if Ben ain’t well then we’ve only got Lewis left so we’ll look to bring him in.”

On Igor Vetokele’s health…

“It was always going to be a risk playing him Saturday (Plymouth), Tuesday (Wycombe), Saturday (Luton) like we did last week and unfortunately his hamstring has not recovered in time.

"I don't know if he'll be ready for Monday. We'll see how he goes in training on Saturday and Sunday, weigh it up and see where we are then."
