Albion groundsman Steve Winterton believes there is a "good chance" of tonight's clash with Gillingham beating the freeze.

Match referee Mike Thorpe, from Suffolk, is carrying out a 2.30pm pitch inspection and Winterton is hopeful of a positive outcome.

He said: "I would say at the moment we have got a good chance. It's just a case of whether the referee thinks one or two areas might be a bit hard."
