Edwards injury hits Final bid
« on: March 08, 2005, 08:06:22 AM »
By Mark Currie (Wrexham Daily Post)

WREXHAM could be without influential Trinidad international Carlos Edwards this evening as they bid to clinch a place in the final of the LDV Vans Trophy.

The wing-back picked up a hamstring strain during Saturday's 6-4 win at Hartlepool United and will have a fitness test shortly before the kick-off against Oldham Athletic, who arrive at the Racecourse trailing by two goals following the Dragons' 5-3 victory at Boundary Park last month in the first leg of the northern area final.

If Edwards misses out, Race-course manager Denis Smith will have to choose between teenager Simon Spender or veteran defender Scott Green to fill the gap and must also decide whether to recall defender Craig Morgan, who sat out the weekend trip to Victoria Park through suspension.

"Carlos did not train this morning because of a tight hamstring and we'll find out tomorrow what the situation is," said the Dragons boss.

" Fortunately Dennis Lawrence and Andy Holt, who had neck and hip problems respectively after Saturday, are both okay."
