James Ball has returned to training as his recovery from a knee ligament injury continues.
Ball suffered the medial cruciate ligament issue at Oldham Athletic in mid-August.
He was initially ruled out for between six and eight weeks, but has now been out of action for two months.
The utility player is now stepping up his rehabilitation, however, and has taken to the grass at Beversbrook in recent days.
