STRIKER Stewart Hadley returns to Kidderminster Harriers squad for tonight's televised Nationwide League Division Three match against struggling Blackpool at Aggborough (7.45)

Hadley, Harriers' leading scorer with four goals, was unavailable for last Saturday's goalless draw with unbeaten Cardiff City at Ninian Park because his newly-born baby son has been unwell.

Also added to the squad is defender Steve Pope who has recovered from hamstring trouble.

Still on the casualty list, however, are front-runner Ian Foster (hamstring), goalkeeper Tim Clarke (knee) and midfielder Gary Barnett (hamstring).

Harriers boss Jan Molby, whose former Liverpool team-mate Steve McMahon is in charge of the lowly Seasiders, said of Foster: "He's had a scan which has shown he's all clear to step up his work, but he's too far away from being able to play in terms of his general fitness."

Regarding Clarke who recently had a cartilage operation, he said: "He's had a reaction to his knee and it's swollen up and is very sore, so tonight will be too early for him."

Kidderminster go into the Sky-televised clash in seventh spot while Blackpool are lock-ed on six points with Halifax at the bottom of the table.

Molby said: "I don't read too much into the league tables at this stage. I think when we get to 15 games we'll know exactly where we are which could possibly shape our season.

"I refuse to believe Black-pool are going to be anywhere near the bottom. They have too many good players. They will come good but we have to make sure it's not against us.

"They play a very rigid 4-4-2 and the danger man is Paul Simpson who they have taken from Wolves. He's playing wide on the left and he's their star man even at the ripe age of 34.

"He's the one that makes them tick and, of course, they have got the joint top scorer in the Third Division in John Murphy.

"He's a kid I know. He was at Liverpool before he went to Chester. He's a big strong boy and he's going to be a real handful.

"People will look at the league table and say we are going to be the favourites tonight. We can't stop them doing that, but if you look into it and think six months ago where were the two clubs. They were in the Second Division and we were in the Conference, so it's going to be tough as all the relegated sides are fancied to do well."

"Steve has got plenty of time to put it right and I think he will."
