Steve McNulty Fending Off Chris Sharp At Luton In 2013 |
Styche was in the Alfreton team that defeated York last season. On the day he scored a brace and won two penalties.
Newton has told 'The Press' that he believes that Styche 'tends to prey on the opposition's weakest player'. But tomorrow York will have Steve McNulty, the big defender with many years of experience, in their side
“In the past, we have lacked the experience and know-how to deal with him but, with big Steve (McNulty) next to you, he does not let you get involved in things like that with people who want to fight you, cause you problems and do things off the ball,” said Newton.
“I know Stychey and he likes to play on the defender that’s having the worst game – Macca does not have bad games, so he will probably target me, Kingy (Josh King) or Taity, (Joe Tait) depending on who’s playing.
“But, if we are on our game, we should have enough to deal with him and, if he does get past one of us, there will also be another two of us to cover, because we’ve done that well this season.”
Former York player Alex Bray is expected to be in Russell Slade's 16 for the game.
