Ryan Valentine on course to return for AFC Telford

And the left-back, who has missed the last two games with a groin injury, is confident the team can end its dismal winless sequence sooner rather than later.

Telford will go to Aggborough tomorrow night aiming to snap a 15-match run without a win in the Blue Square Bet Premier League, a run which has caused them to slip into the relegation zone.

But Valentine is confident he will be back in contention for the game and he is convinced the Bucks will grab a much-needed three points sooner rather than later – provided they can maintain the recent improvements shown in draws against Luton Town and Alfreton.

The former Wrexham and Hereford United stopper took part in training last week as well as continuing gym sessions with club physio Ruddy Farquharson to help speed up his recovery.

Valentine said: "I should be back in contention for Kidderminster.

"I did half of the session on Tuesday as well as some work with Ruddy. It has felt fine so far and hopefully I will have no reaction between now and the game."

He added: "I haven't been around the lads a lot because I have been working with Ruddy but from what I have seen the attitude is great.

"We have had two decent performances although we haven't had the results we wanted but hopefully we will take those performances into the Kidderminster game.

"I don't know how soon it will be but there is a definitely a win around the corner if we can keep playing like that."

Meanwhile injured midfielder Richard Davies is expected to be out of action for another four-five weeks because of a foot injury.

Bucks boss Andy Sinton has been waiting on the results of a scan showing how a chipped bone in the player's foot has been healing. But he estimated that Davies would not be ready to return until early March.
