Belper are quietly edging their way closer to play-offs
Friday, November 21, 2008, 07:30
While the performances haven't been as slick as joint manager Danny Hudson would have liked, the Nailers have been winning games and creeping up the table.
They also have a few games in hand on most of their rivals.
"If we win all our games in hand then we will be top of the table," said Hudson.
Striker Ben Walker should return tomorrow after serving a one-match suspension against Brigg, while Krystof Kotylo has recovered from a bout of flu.
Forward Ant Wilson is suspended and Hudson and Carney are hoping to bring someone in on loan.
However, they have denied rumours that they are to make a raid on troubled Gresley Rovers, who have told their players that they will be unable to pay them for the rest of the season.
"There are rumours flying around but nothing has come from Andy (Carney) or me," said Hudson.
"I think people are throwing names into the equation because Gresley are a local club, like us.
"But, at a time like this, we need to spare a thought for them because it could happen to any club.
"Andy and I are good friends with their manager, Gary Norton, and we wish Gresley well.
"We are, however, looking to bring someone in for the Stamford game.
"We're struggling a bit because no-one wants to release players at this time of the season, especially on loan."
