Postponed Games Have Helped Get Players Fit

Both Hereford's Josh Gowling and Kidderminster Russ Penn have said how the break in games because of frozen pitches has enabled some injuried players to return to fitness.

"We've got quite a few bodies back so the squad is a lot bigger than it was which is pleasing," Gowling told BBC Hereford and Worcester.

"It just means we can do a bit more work on the training ground.

"When you've played well but not won you end up being really frustrated so ideally you want to get those frustrations out by playing games and winning."

Penn also has bodies back and a game last Tuesday helped.

"I'm going to be honest it's probably done us the world of good with the illness that was going around the club and the injuries.

"We've got a couple more players coming back for Hereford game which is great.

"And then we'll have a couple more back for the week after so things are starting to look up.

"Two big games for both clubs."
