Ex Halesowen player and now manager of Rainworth Scott Rickards
"Rickards' policy of blooding youth looks to be paying ample dividends.
That policy will be put to the test on Saturday, when Rainworth travel to league leaders Halesowen Town, who have already won at Kirklington Road this season but who will be hoping to bounce back from Tuesday's 3-0 home defeat by Coalville Town.
Lloyd, Bowles and Dudley should all return to the squad, while leading scorer Longstaff is likely to face a fitness test.
Rickards added: "Ash is a big player for us, but we don't want to rush him back before he is ready and risk compounding his injury, and with Jamie coming back with a hat-trick we will still be capable of scoring goals.
"Halesowen may have suffered a blip but they have been consistent over 25 games. However, we know where their threats are likely to come from and we trust that we will be able to deal with them.
"We have shown this season that we are capable of picking up points from the leading clubs in the division if our mindset is right and we continue to play as we have been doing in recent weeks when we haven't always got the reward we have deserved."

Hopefully the only fork I will need to use Saturday is for eating my chips
