Brian Howard will miss out against his former club Swindon when Barnsley visit the County Ground. Midfielder Howard, who left the Robins for Oakwell in the summer, sits out the second of a three-match ban following his recent dismissal at Bradford. But Antony Kay will return to the squad after serving a one-game suspension. Striker Daniel Nardiello is still struggling with a hamstring injury so Marc Richards will continue to partner Paul Hayes up front. Midfielder Richard Kell, yet to appear for Barnsley following his summer switch from Scnuthorpe due to a broken leg, is not quite ready to return to the squad.
