** LATEST NEWS **
- 25 November - Two goals from Adie Smith and another
from Man of the Match Ian Foster give Harriers a comfortable victory
over York at Aggborough.
- 24 November - York are the visitors to Aggborough tomorrow,
Dean Bennett is a certain absentee from the clash as he is still suffering from
the head wound picked up last week. Paul Webb is also doubtful with his groin injury, and
new signing Parfait Medou-Otye is also rested as he is not fully fit. Harriers
wll probably line-up as follows: Brock, Clarkson, Stamps, Bogie, Hinton, Shail,
Smith, Bird, Ducros, Foster.
- 23 November - Harriers have completed the signings
of two more players. Parfait Medou-Otye
has joined from Morton on an 18 month contract, and Neil
MacKenzie has signed for the rest of the season having been released
by Cambridge.
- 21 November - A waterlogged pitch has caused tonight's
game at Plymouth to be postponed for a second time. Harriers are also
set to sign Neil MacKenzie the former Stoke and Cambridge United midfielder
who played in the Harriers youth team back in 1992. Matthew Boswell has joined
Bilston.
- 20 November - Harriers have today tied up deal with
John Durnin which will keep the 35 year old striker at the club until
the end of the season. The player should be fit to return to the line-up
for tomorrow's trip to Plymouth for the rearranged Division Three match.
However, due to the continuing bad weather in the South-West, there will
be a pitch inspection at 9 am in the morning. Provided the game goes
ahead expect Durnin to come into the team in place of Dean Bennett who
picked up a head wound in Saturday's cup tie with Burton and could be
out for a couple of weeks.
- 18 November - As has become common of late, Harriers
dominate possession and fail to convert it into goals, drawing 0-0 with
Burton at Aggborough. The teams must now replay on Tueday 28 November at
Eton Park with the winners facing a home tie with Carlisle United in
the Second Round.
- 18 November - Harriers enter the FA Cup today entertaining
Burton Albion at Aggborough. The clash brings together two former Liverpool
team mates and room mates in Nigel Clough of Burton and Harriers' Jan Molby.
The Southern League side will be looking to capitalise on their underdog status
and record a famous victory at the same time as gaing revenge for the
4-1 victory Harriers had in a pre-season friendly. Harriers
have a couple of injury doubts in Paul Webb and Adie Smith who have minor
knocks, certain to be missing is John Durnin who is ineligible due to FA contractual
regulations. Harriers will probably line-up as follows: Brock, Clarkson, Stamps, Bogie,
Hinton, Shail, Bennett, Smith, Foster, Ducros, Hadley.
- 14 November - Jan Molby has admitted to an interest
in bringing Andy Brownrigg back to the club, but as the player is still
under contract to Morton it is unlikely that anything will happen for
the forseeable future. Also, Molby is confident of tying up a deal
with John Durnin before the end of the week. The Harriers manager has
also been linked to the vacant manager's position at Premier League Bradford.
- 11 November - A disappointing defeat as Harriers throw
away the lead to lose 3-1 at Hartlepool. John Durnin's first half strike
is not enough as the Harriers' inability to defend at set pieces sees
them undone by two corners, 11 out of 23 goals against have now come
from set pieces.
- 11 November - Today's trip to Hartlepool is currently
still on, weather in the north-east has not been so bad in the last
couple of days. Harriers again have an almost full squad to choose from, Thomas
Skovbjerg is the only injury. Tony Bird may keep his place after scoring
his first goals for the club in midweek altough most of the players
rested from the game against Kingstonian should return. Expect Harriers
to line-up something like this: Brock, Clarkson, Stamps, Webb, Hinton, Shail,
Smith, Horne, Bird, Ducros, Durnin.
- 7 November - Harriers include trialist Matthew Boswell
in goal for tonight's Jim Thompson Shield match against Kingstonian. Boswell
arrives having previously seen service with both Port Vale and Sligo Rovers. The
star of the night, however, is Tony Bird who comes off the bench to score
twice in the last three minutes to win the match.
- 4 November - The local derby between the last two
Conference champions ended all square, Harriers taking an early lead before
sustained Cheltenham pressure brought about a second half
equaliser. Match report.
- 3 November - Ahead of tomorrow's local derby with
Cheltenham, Harriers' only injury is that of Thomas Skovbjerg. The game
sees the return to Aggborough of Graham Allner and Mark Yates for a match
which should generate a near capacity crowd. St@tto predicts the Harriers
to line-up as follows: Clarke, Clarkson, Stamps, Webb, Hinton, Shail,
Bennett, Horne, Foster, Ducros, Durnin.
- 1 November - Steve Pope has been placed on the transfer
list. The young defender has been unable to break into the first team since
recovering from the ligament injury which kept him out of action for a year
and is now available for loan or a free transfer.
