CORSHAM boss Colin Bush has added midfielder Craig Gingell to his squad to cope with the fixture pile up.

After Frome called off Tuesday night's clash, Corsham are left with at least 21 games to play in under three months.

If they progress to the later stages of the Les Philips Cup and the final of the Wiltshire Senior cup they could have even more games to fit in.

With John Woods and Frank Coleman injured Bush will be forced to bring reserve and youth players into the starting line up.

He said: "The build up of fixtures is ridiculous, we were desperate to play Frome and they called it off."

Bush says the Southbank pitch was wrecked during Saturday's quarter final win over Westbury.

He is praying for good weather ahead of this weekend's visit of Exmouth.

"It will be a good test for us and we will be underdogs."

The manager says there is a possibility that new signing Gingell could be in the line up.

Gingell worked with Bush when he was playing at Chippenham and has recently been playing his football for Wiltshire side Rudloe.

Meanwhile, striker Matt Bennett and midfielder Nick Beaverstock have turned down moves to the Premier Division high flyers.

The Wootton Bassett hitman wants to finish the season at the Hellenic League strugglers.

The 18-year-old is still playing in the Bassett youth side and is looking forward to the Wiltshire Youth Cup semi-final. "He is a sensible lad and wants to try and win the youth cup. We will be talking to him again in the summer," Bush added.

Beaverstock pledged the rest of his season to Odd Down as he wants to help them survive in the Premier Division.

Bush is still in talks with Devizes striker David Lloyd.

New Melksham manager Lee Burns is on the look out for two players. He has put in seven-day transfer requests for a striker and a defender although he would not reveal who.

He is hoping to get the new players installed before their home game against Welton Rovers on Saturday.

MELKSHAM and Calne's Screwfix League fixtures were both postponed on Tuesday night.
