Town have named Dan Harding and Dean Bowditch in the squad for Saturday's game at Crystal Palace. The duo recently returned from loan spells at Brentford and Southend respectively.

Boss Jim Magilton told the club site that Harding did well enough in his spell with the Shrimpers to warrant his inclusion: "Dan is back with us now and is in the squad for the Palace game.

"He impressed everyone in his time at Southend, which is no surprise to anyone here, because he's a good player.

"He wanted to go out and play games and he's done that and will be better for it."
