Team News | The Swans are hoping to do the double over eighth-placed County after beating them at Meadow Lane last September through a Martin Thomas goal. "As we've always said there are no easy matches. No side is going to walk away with any game," continued Hollins. "We've got to make sure we play well from the first minute. We must put them under pressure and make sure they are pushed back."
Smith is still doubtful as to whether he can return and will be badly missed as the defence leaked 5 goals in his abscence on Saturday.
| One 2 Watch : Mark Stallard | In the steal of the season, Sam Allardyce made an audacious £10,000 scoop for Mark from Wycombe Wanderers in March 1999 after he was unwilling to commit himself to a new contract. He had begun season 1997/98 in explosive form, with 11 goals in his first 16 games, including a hat trick at home to Walsall and finished with 18 in 46 starts proving himself one of the deadliest strikers at this level. He quickly became quite a favourite with Magpie fans, scoring some vital goals at the end of the season to help the club avoid relegation. With good vision, Mark is a nippy player, quick over short distances, and often scores goals from close range, being confident with both his left and right foot. |
