NEW Town loan signing Jon Obika has been named on the bench for Town's visit to Leyton Orient tonight.
The young striker, who today joined from Tottenham until the end of the season, does not come into the visitors' attack in spite of the absence of Elliot Benyon, who has a hamstring injury. Alan O'Brien also sits out tonight's game with a hamstring problem.
Forward Benyon is replaced by Matt Ritchie who will support main striker Thomas Dossevi, while O'Brien is supplanted by Michael Rose, who moves forward from left back. Lecsinel Jean-Francois takes Rose's place in defence.
