Glovers to hand Walker debut

Fri, 20 Jan 04:04:59 2012

Goalkeeper Sam Walker is set to make his Yeovil debut against Bury.

The 20-year-old shot-stopper signed on loan from Chelsea on Thursday and, with Rene Gilmartin having returned to Watford from his loan spell at Huish Park, Walker could find himself starting at Gigg Lane.

Midfielder Dominic Blizzard is the only absentee for manager Gary Johnson with a groin injury, while defender Max Ehmer has returned to QPR early from his loan spell in Somerset and will therefore not feature.

Victory at Bury would be Yeovil's second in as many games after they beat Tranmere 2-1 last time out, and Johnson is keen to kick-start the Glovers' season.

He told the Western Gazette: "Back-to-back wins are important in our league because we need to get the points now so that you are not chasing in the last few games of the season."
