Two players drop out of Boro's squad for Whitby

The game tonight kicks off at 19:00 and Middlesbrough have announced changes to the squad that was released earlier. Malcolm Christie drops out as he feels he is still not back to match fitness and Massimo Maccarone is out as he played in a full-scale practice match yesterday.

This latter activity has led to several other changes to the suad that was previosly Whitby bound with Colin Cooper the only player with first team experience.

Revised Squad:
Boro Squad:
Knight, Pennock, Mulligan, Cooper, Clough, Thompson, Liddle, Walker, Grounds, Fisher, Honeyman, Craddock, Burgess, Johnson (J), Watling
