Paul Fairclough has made two changes for next week's Four Nations Cup.
Wednesday, 17 May 2006.
National Game XI manager Paul Fairclough has been forced into a double change ahead of next week's Four Nations Tournament.
Fairclough has called up Dennis Oli, who scored Grays Athletic's first goal in their FA Trophy triumph over Woking on Sunday, and Dagenham & Redbridge's Glen Southam.
The two players missing out through injury are Conference top scorer Andy Bishop, whose goals earned him a move to Bury, and Rob Purdie.
Oli will join up with fellow Grays team-mates John Nutter, Stuart Thurgood and Aaron McLean who all starred in the convincing 2-0 win at Upton Park.
Woking pair Shwan Jalal and Justin Richards (pictured), who were on losing side in The Trophy Final, were given a much needed boost after being included in the squad.
Other names to look out for are Stevenage Borough's Ronnie Henry, grandson of Ron Henry who was the left-back in Spurs' double winning side of 1961, Paul Jones, who kept a clean sheet at Old Trafford for Exeter in last year's FA Cup, and Shane Blackett, who is Dagenham & Redbridge's player of the year.
England will attempt to retain the Four Nations title after they won all three games in last year's tournament.
