Thursday night's home game against Ebbsfleet Untied gives Halifax Town a quick chance to banish Tuesday's mauling by Kidderminster Harriers.And as a bonus, a victory would move The Shaymen out of the bottom four with five games remaining.

This is the only Blue Square Premier game on Thursday evening and Town simply have to take the points on offer.Three games in 6 days is a lot to ask at any level of football therefore changes to the starting line up are expected.

Gareth Davies may return at right back in a move that will free Anthony Griffith for a return to his central midfield role and in attack there may be a starting place for Darryn Stamp who has come off the bench twice since returning from a loan spell at Northwich Victoria.

Town face an Ebbsfleet team that held champions elect Aldershot Town to a 2 v 2 draw on Tuesday evening and they can justifiably claim to have had a successful season on the field with an FA Trophy final appearance to come and off it having received a huge cash boost via investment from the internet based myfootballclub.com scheme.

Setanta TV's cameras will be in attendance to broadcast the game and the Town players are looking forward to showing Tuesday's performance and result were a one off.

It's reduced admission prices again at The Shay with adults £12, concessions £8 and under 16's admitted free.Turn out and back the lads.
