Michael Brough makes his first appearance for Darlington in today's FA Cup tie at Mossley.

He has been injured since sustaining a knee problem during the pre-season friendly with Carlisle United.

But after making his comeback in the midweek Durham Challenge Cup tie at Norton, Brough starts today as one of three changes.

Manager Mark Cooper is unable to call on Liam Hatch, who has not been or Jefferson Louis, who is cup-tied, while Gareth Waite is dropped.

In their place, as well as Brough, comes Gary Smith and Chris Senior for what is Quakers' first FA Cup fourth qualifying round tie since 1989.
