Ossett Albion forward Jimmy Eyles, pictured in 2013, playing for Ossett Town, has been dual-registered with Liversedge
Liversedge are set to play their first home game since the end of October tonight, with several new and old faces in their side.
The beleaguered pitch passed a fitness test at lunchtime so the visit of Pontefract Collieries is set to go ahead. It is the first of 17 cup finals for bottom-placed ‘Sedge in their battle to beat the drop.
Manager Jon Rimmington has been busy bolstering his squad for the run-in. He has persuaded Ossett Albion boss Richard Tracey to let him dual-register striker Jimmy Eyles, a move described as a coup.
Harrogate Railway chief Lee Ashforth, Sedge’s ex goalkeeper, has also allowed them to register his assistant Simon Wood – another former Sedge defender.
Last week Rimmington signed experienced midfielder Brice Tiani from Albion Sports.
