AFTER an enforced break Scarborough return to Nationwide Conference action tomorrow with a home game against Stevenage Borough, who are just a place above them.

Like York City, Boro were without a game last weekend - the FA Cup first round date - but coach Nick Henry may not turn back the clock a fortnight.

Boro's last game saw them win 3-0 at Dagenham with new tactics of three at the back but Henry is by no means certain that he will keep this formation.

"It's all about horses for courses and at the moment I haven't decided how the team will line up," he said.

Mark Hotte is missing for a month after keyhole surgery on his knee with Ashley Lyth or Nick Heinemann possible replacements.

Tony Hackworth is fit again but will be on the bench after the showing by Robert Gill in the win at Dagenham.

Keith Gilroy is also close to full fitness after his hamstring injury and may make the squad

Henry said: "There are going to be a lot of tight games coming up because the league is very competitive and there are going to be games where teams will be changing places after a result.

"But we have a good home record and we must take the form we had at Dagenham into this game."

Boro: Walker, Lyth, Foot, Baker, Nicholson, Thompson, Redfearn, Cryan, Kerr, Senior, Gill. Subs from Pounder, Foster, Coulson, Hackworth, Gilroy, Heineman, Coppinger
