INJURY hit Lancaster City will be looking to continue their 100 per cent league record this weekend, despite losing a string of first team regulars.

As well as long term casualty Jimmy Graham, City have also seen Paul Sparrow, Kenny Mayers, Lee Clitheroe, Brian Butler, Paul Haddow and Dean Martin sidelined by injury.

"Our dressing room looked more like a casualty department after Tuesday night's game," said boss Tony Hesketh: "But we're still getting results.

"They are all tough games in this division. Colwyn Bay gave us a good battle and I thought Vauxhall Motors were a cracking side."

On a brighter note, Hesketh believes the signing of experienced winger Andy Lyons is a real coup for the club.

The left sided ace, who has starred for Crewe, Wigan Athletic, Ayr United and Partick Thistle, joins from Morecambe on a free transfer.

Not surprisingly, Hesketh expect's the Fleetwood based postman's deliveries will be spot on.

"Jimmy Graham had probably the best left footed set piece delivery in this division," said Hesketh: "And I can see Andy establishing something like that as well.

"On Tuesday night he came off the bench and his first contribution set up a goal. That says it all, really. He's a great creative attacking player, but he is also a very good defender."
