Richard Davies is making progress for AFC Telford return

Injured AFC Telford midfielder Richard Davies says he is making good progress in his bid to recover from a calf injury.

The 22-year old remains a doubt for tomorrow's Blue Square Bet Premier League clash at home to Ebbsfleet.

But he has been making steady improvement under the supervision of club physio Ruddy Farquharson and assistant manager Mike Davies and is confident he is nearing a return to match action.

Davies aggravated his calf muscle during the Bucks' FA Cup fourth qualifying round replay defeat at Nuneaton last month, which went to extra time, and he missed last weekend's trip to Alfreton as a result.

With Nathan Rooney also sidelined due to a foot injury, Telford have been light in midfield options in recent games.

"It's my calf. It has been tight the last couple of games," he said. "After the Nuneaton game, it was quite a long game so I felt it quite a bit the next day and it didn't ease off.

"I have been training with Ruddy and Mike doing a bit of rehab and it has been getting better so hopefully I will be back soon.

"I had had it for the last couple of games before Nuneaton but it just got a bit sore throughout that game.

"But it is getting easier. Ruddy has been really good with me so hopefully I can push on and get fit as soon as I can."
