Clark and Pope missing for Port Vale

Mitch Clark and Tom Pope will both miss Port Vale’s League Two clash with Colchester due to suspension.

Leicester loan defender Clark will start a three-match ban after his straight red card in Tuesday’s 3-2 win at Forest Green Rovers.

Striker Pope was sent off for two yellow cards and so will serve his one-match ban on Saturday.

James Gibbons will also complete his two-match suspension due to 10 yellow cards, leaving midfielder Will Atkinson in line to slot in at right-back.

John McGreal must decide whether to field the same Colchester starting XI for the third match in eight days.

The Colchester boss was left frustrated with United slipping to a turnaround 3-2 home loss to Grimsby Town on Tuesday, and could now ring the changes.

Theo Robinson should lead the forward line again, having found the net in the midweek defeat by the Mariners.

The 31-year-old has five goals in four games, and will be looking to trouble the scorers for a third game on the trot.
