Blue Square Premier - Kidderminster Harriers pencil in Penn return

Feb 22 2008

KIDDERMINSTER Harriers can welcome back midfielder Russ Penn to face Salisbury City tomorrow in the Blue Square Premier following his exploits for England C this week.

Penn shook off the discomfort of a bruised knee to play 80 minutes in England's 2-1 win over Wales Under-23s at Exeter City, where he helped set up one of the goals.

The impressive Penn is set to resume his partnership with fit-again Andy Ferrell as Harriers boss Mark Yates has the luxury of a full squad to select from.

AFC Telford will be boosted by the return of Michael Husbands and Luke Reynolds for their trip to Alfreton in Blue Square North. The pair look set for a place on the bench as the Bucks bid to cement second place and close the gap on leaders Kettering at the same time.

Telford remain without injury victims Richard Teasdale, Jamie Vermiglio, Vaughan Thomas and Indie Khela, while Lee Vaughan is suspended and will be replaced by Steve Jagielka.
