BERNARD Morley could make his first appearance for Rossendale United for six months tonight following his recovery from a broken leg.
The Stags are boosted by the striker's return as they travel to Blackpool Mechanics in the Lancashire FA United Co-Operative Challenge Trophy first round.
But manager Derek Egan doesn't want Morley to do too much, too soon.
"This will be the first time Bernard's been included in any game since April," he said.
"Depending on how the game's going he might get a 20-minute run out."
Phil Eastwood is likely to be sidelined with a recurring hamstring problem while David Eatock has been signed by Flixton.
