Hollins will continue to run the rule over his younger players in the last two matches of the season, starting against Brentford at the Vetch tonight.

'We're trying to play as many of the young players as we can so we are able to assess them. Now that we're no longer battling to stay up we can do that.'

Defenders Jason Smith, Steve Jones and Kris O'Leary, who have all been sidelined recently with ankle injuries, could be in contention for a place in tonight's line-up, so too could midfielder Damian Lacey Awho has been out with a foot injury.

We asked his view's on Saturday's disappointing result at Oxford, Hollins replied,

'We played well in the first half. 'But in the second half we were giving the ball away in bad areas and we made some poor decisions. But that game is gone.

The next one is tougher because Brentford are no slouches. 'I'm happy with my players' commitment. They are trying hard to get back into games.

Against Wrexham last week we conceded what was an offside goal after four minutes, but I felt we should have had a draw.'
