Constantine or Manset

Hereford United manager John Trewick faces a couple of decisions before announcing his side to meet Shrewsbury on Tuesday.

The 'beast', Mathieu Manset, is available again after his three match ban however Leon Constantine, who has come back into the team, scored twice yesterday but was implicated in the penalty decision from which Burton scored their second goal. It was difficult to see from the away end whether referee Whitestone made the correct call and the television pictures didn't help either. However Trewick wasn't at all happy with Whitestone's decision and may decide to give Constantine, who otherwise had his best game since joining the Bulls, the nod over Manset

Ryan Green may be available for the game. His presence was missed yesterday. He had travelled with the squad but failed a late fitness test.

Trewick is expected to revert to a 4-4-2 system for the game having used a 3-5-2 system for the last two, admittedly away, games. The jury appears to be out on whether 3-5-2 worked especially as the Bulls conceded two goals yesterday from poor marking.

One player who will hope to be included in the starting eleven is former Shrewsbury winger Marc Pugh. With the 3-5-2 system Pugh has had to be content with a place of the bench, although he did get three or four minutes right at the end of yesterday's game. Too little too late some might say.

Pugh joined the Bulls on loan in late March. He left Shrewsbury by mutual consent after failing to play regularily under former manager Paul Simpson. A permanent move was announced at the end of June. He's looking forward to the match.

"Derby games are always great to play in," Pugh told the Hereford Times.

"Hopefully, it will be a big crowd with an excellent atmosphere and a lively pace to the game.

"I feel that I have a point to prove and I want to show my old manager he was wrong about me.

"It would be really nice to beat Shrewsbury."
