Boston United to check on fitness of Andi Thanoj ahead of FA Trophy clash

Boston United will assess playmaker Andi Thanoj's fitness this evening ahead of Saturday's FA Trophy tie.

The former Grimsby Town and Harrogate midfielder suffered a thigh injury in last weekend's goalless draw with Chester and missed Monday's 3-0 Trophy win at Evesham United.

Manager Craig Elliott will run the rule over Thanoj this evening, hoping he and winger Jay Rollins will both be passed fit to face AFC Fylde in the third round at the Jakemans Stadium this weekend (KO 3pm).

"Andi Thanoj will be assessed on Thursday and we'll see how he is," Elliot said.

"That's why I brought him off on Saturday, he just felt his thigh a little bit. We're hoping it's nothing too bad.

"Jay Rollins has a slight foot injury but nothing too serious. Hopefully he should be alright."
