Shrimps aim to halt Shrews' charge

McIlroy: Set to make changes

Craig Stanley is back in the first-team picture at Christie Park after a well-publicised bust-up with McIlroy.

The pair have put their differences to one side but a toe injury is keeping Stanley on the sidelines and forced him to miss the Johnstone's Paint Trophy win at Oldham in midweek.

McIlroy, meanwhile, has sent Michael Carr back to Northwich on loan and is set to keep Stewart Drummond and Diarmuid O'Carroll in the starting line-up against the Shrews.

However, the former Northern Ireland boss will check on the fitness of defender Michael Howard after he was forced off with a back injury after just 30 minutes at Boundary Park on Tuesday.
