Smith's side are looking for their second win of the season

Telford boss Rob Smith will wait until the last minute before deciding whether to include defender Stuart Whitehead against Fleetwood on Saturday.

Whitehead missed the first two games of the new campaign against Blyth Spartans and Stalybridge after suffering a knee injury during pre-season.

"He joined in training on Thursday, so we'll have a look before the game," Smith told BBC Radio Shropshire.

"We don't want to rush him, if there's any risk then we won't play him."

Telford have picked up four points from their first two league games, beating Stalybridge 3-0 at Bower Fold on Tuesday.

Fleetwood are seventh in the Blue Square North and were held to a draw against Hyde mid-week.
