Mark Howard will travel with his Blackpool teammates to Accrington Stanley tomorrow as he continues his recovery from a long-term injury.
The goalkeeper remains some way off being considered for selection despite the 32-year-old recently returning to training.
Howard has been sidelined since March of last year, when he was forced to undergo surgery after rupturing his Achilles during the 3-0 defeat against Burton Albion.
But the shot stopper is now on the mend and is heading in the right direction.
“He’s doing really well and is back training the team, which is good,” Grayson told The Gazette.
“He’s been champing at the bit to get back into training because he’s been doing a lot of work with Steve Banks one-on-one and the other goalkeepers.
“It’s only been the last four or five days that he’s joined in again with the rest of the group which is great for him.
“Psychologically it gives him a great boost and he’s a great character around the dressing room, so it’s great for the other lads to see him back amongst it.
“He will travel with the first team to Accrington just to be in and around the scenario.
“He’s still way off from being available for selection but he’s making real good progress which we’re delighted with, because he’s a good lad and he’s had to work hard to get back to where he is.”
The only other Blackpool player currently out injured is Nathan Delfouneso, who remains sidelined with a hamstring complaint.
The 28-year-old has missed the Seasiders’ last two games after returning from a separate hamstring injury at Coventry City earlier in the month.
While Delfouneso is also on the mend, today’s trip to the Crown Ground comes too soon for him.
“He’s still struggling with his hamstring but he’s making good progress,” Grayson said.
“We won’t put any timescale on it, it’s just an injury we’re disappointed with and we’re also disappointed for him because he was making good progress and had started the season really well.
“But these things happen over the course of a season and it gives others the opportunity to come into the team.”

Better than Alnwick you think?
From what I've seen, Alnwick needs to work on his distribution. | |

Exactly how many threads has Fedora plagiarised from this board and posted on AVFTT?
I'd sort of put it down to coincidence but it's getting beyond a joke now.
If you like the posts on here then you're welcome to join in.
Otherwise it's poor form.

Quite flattered they would do that, if that's what they'd done.
Threads will be similar anyway, as we're all fishing from the same source material pool. | |

Yes, coincidence perhaps but it does always seem to be the same 2 or 3 posters.
I've even seen expressions, colloquial expressions quoted word for word a short while after appearing on here.
I don't read AVFTT every day and don't see a quarter of the posts. These examples are only what I've noticed in passing.
They'll be back and will read this.
Post on here guys. [Post edited 23 Sep 2019 18:59]

Howard's shot-stopping can be world class. His weakness is commanding his six-yard box but that can be coached. Alnwick and Mafoumbi are both very decent as well - I think we've got three top goalies which is unusual | |

World class, really?
Also at 32, I'd say that the time for coaching some authority into his 6 yard box game has largely come and gone. | |

Absolutely. Some of his saves last season were truly special. | |
