St Leonards have recovered from a selection crisis, but Saints' match at Ashford Town tomorrow is "very doubtful" due to the heavy rain.

It would be the fourth successive Saints match to be postponed, but manager Terry White was not too worried when the first fell foul of the weather.

White revealed: "I was delighted the game against Eastbourne Borough was called off on Boxing Day because I only had eight fit and available players and four of those were under 18.

"I signed two of our social club players, Andy Pegman and Chris Scott, because I had no alternative.

"They both played at county level a few years ago but, with the greatest of respect to them, I would hope not to have to play them."

Sean Ray (ankle ligaments), Paul Wilson (broken rib) and Roy Godden (sickness) are all expected to be fit, while Tony Cornelius is available again after suspension and several other players are back from Christmas holidays.

White added: "We could do with a game at the moment, but the pitch at Ashford isn't one of the best for drainage."
