Southport have bolstered their ranks ahead of their trip to Edgar Street with the signing of defender Neil Byrne from Rochdale and midfielder Scott Kay from Huddersfield.
Teenager Byrne had an unsuccessful trial with Tamworth last week, and makes the move with the Sandgrounders short of defensive options for Saturday's game.
Steve Akrigg is having shoulder surgery today while Chris Lynch, Chris Lever, and Andy Parry are all out of the trip through injury.
Midfielder Kay, 23, ended last season at Macclesfield, making 18 appearances before signing a season long deal at Huddersfield.
