FA CUP: Sale boost for Alfreton ahead of replay

Alfreton Town manager David Lloyd has the boost of having striker Mark Sale rejoin his squad for Tuesday evening's FA Cup first round replay at Macclesfield Town (7.45pm kick-off).

As the Reds bid to reach the second round of the competition for the first time ever, Sale has shaken off an ankle injury picked up when scoring the equaliser in the 1-1 draw against the Silkmen at the Impact Arena.

Lloyd also has John Knapper returning after recovering from a virus which has kept him out of the past two games. The only absentee is winger Chris Dolby who has flu.

Reds from: Lee Butler, Carl Bradshaw, Ian Robinson, Ben Chapman, Mark Blount, Grant Brown (captain), Mitch Ward, John Knapper, Matt Fisher, Emeka Nwadike, Chris Bettney, Peter Duffield, Mick Godber, Mick Goddard, Mark Sale, David Holmes.
