Yeltz injury crisis

Halesowen face a mounting injury crisis as they head for Merthyr Tydfil in the Southern League tomorrow.

Manager Martin O'Connor will be without Paul Devlin (groin), Duane Darby (hamstring), Gary Knight (ankle), Liam MacDonald (back) and Junior Brown (knee) for the trip to Wales.

So the boss is counting on his youngsters to rise to the task again.

"It's difficult because all five of those players would probably be in our first team," said O'Connor.

"I've lost all five of them and I don't know at the moment how long they will be out for so it's obviously a difficult thing for us to cope with."
