The manager was keen to stress that Ryan Brunt is not being frozen out.
He said: “Ryan has been out a long time, I thought he was miles off in the Altrincham game, but he has not been cold shouldered by me.
“Ellis Harrison has had a good pre-season and been doing well in training, and Ryan has been off the pace a bit – but that can all change.
“I brought Adam Cunnington in because he is experienced at this level, I have not brought him in to replace Ryan Brunt.
“I am sure Ryan will get more opportunities, but my job as manager is to pick players who are performing and who are right for the occasion.”
And in team news, Mark McChrystal will be assessed over the next two days to determine his fitness for Saturday.

For those asking I'm not injured. I'm feeling fit and well.
