EXPERIENCED midfielder Neil Cartwright is set to make his debut for Bromsgrove Rovers in their home Midland Alliance clash with Studley BKL tomorrow (3pm).

The former Kidderminster Harriers and Halesowen Town player, who signed from Redditch United, could feature with joint bosses Jon Ford and Gary Hackett without several players due to suspension.

Steve Pope, Matt Coppin, Sam Bowen, Shaun Derry, Joe Licata and Steve Foster are all banned as Rovers seek to maintain the pressure on leaders Stratford.

Striker Stuart Payne has left the club by mutual consent but talks are ongoing with Malvern Town duo Dean Roberts and Wesley Joyce about a possible move to Rovers.

Bilston Town's Lee Bullimore has turned down a move to Rovers after deciding to join Willenhall Town.

For Ford tomorrow's match with Studley is not to be taken lightly. "It's a home match and we are very much looking to take three points," he said.

"But we only scraped three points at their place and the general view from the players is that Studley were one of the best sides we've played so we won't be underestimating them.

"If we can win it sets us up nicely for the trip to Stourbridge on Tuesday."
