CONOR Hourihane hopes that Georgie Gent – who has been out injured for seven months with an Achilles injury – will be in the squad for Saturday's FA Cup tie against York.

Josh Earl, who missed Saturday’s loss to Rotherham, is also available for selection – but Adam Phillips is not in contention.

Hourihane said: “Josh is pretty much fine – we expect him to get through training and be available for selection.

“Phillo won’t be here this weekend in terms of availability.

“It’s more focusing on if we can get him back for Donny.

“We’re hoping for Georgie to be involved at the weekend.

“He’s had a decent amount of time now on the grass and I think this could be a good game for him.

“Whether he comes on or not time will tell.

“It’s not been an easy road for him.

“It’s a difficult injury and I think this has cme at a good time for him.

“Just to be in a matchday squad and feel part of the group again properly.”
