Goalkeeper Andy Little may be among the substitutes for Crawley's trip to St Albans City in the FA Trophy three weeks after breaking his cheekbone.
Little has recovered from surgery quicker than expected but Craig Holloway is set to keep the goalkeeper's jersey for the third match of his loan spell from Arsenal.
Vines said: "Although the league is our priority we will still be taking the Trophy seriously.
"Some of the better Conference teams do not put as much effort into the competition these days so we could have a chance of doing well."
Vines has released Barbados under-23s striker Fabian Forde and former Wimbledon midfielder Peter Fear has been put on the transfer list.
