Pertemps Bees have been given a timely boost ahead of their final National One game of the season at champions Worcester on Saturday April 24.

Scrum-half Paul Knight is expected to be passed fit to take his place in the squad for the first time since he cracked ribs in the Powergen Cup semi-final defeat at Newcastle Falcons six weeks ago.

Knight came through a contact training session last night and is now likely to be named as a replacement for the trip to Sixways.

Lock Rob Walton is also expected to return after he missed the draw at Manchester and defeat by Plymouth Albion with an ankle injury. Centre Mike Davies, who aggravated an ankle injury at Newcastle, is also in line to return at Worcester but his availability is still subject to a final fitness check on Thursday evening.
