The Town first-team squad and staff are awaiting the results of Covid-19 tests ahead of tomorrow’s trip to Doncaster Rovers.

On Friday, striker Kayden Jackson called in sick as he was showing symptoms and was told to stay away from the training ground and subsequently underwent a test.

The rest of the squad and staff took tests this morning as a precautionary measure ahead of Tuesday’s trip to Doncaster.

Players who test positive for Covid-19 are required to enter a 10-day isolation period.

Already this season Grimsby Town and Crewe Alexandra have had games postponed due to a number of their players testing positive, although at present there is no expectation that Tuesday's match is in doubt.
