Croydon Athletic manager Tim O'Shea admits he may rest players in tomorrow's Surrey Senior Cup match against Crystal Palace.

The Rams are in the middle of a hectic run of fixtures and have a Ryman League Division One South match against Corinthian Casuals less than two days after the cup game.

O'Shea's side have won four on the bounce in the league and are pushing for promotion and the former Grays Athletic boss admits he may have to decide what his team's priorities are this season.

"I think we have to prioritise the league over the cup which is unfortunate," he said.

"If we win we are in the quarter finals and we are that close to reaching the final and it's always a good day out for the fans and the club.

"There will be a handful of first team players who are young enough and fit enough to handle two games in three days and the rest will be made up of players who haven't played regularly of late.

"One or two of our injured players might come back and play half an hour or so too.

"I want to put as best side out as I can but it is certainly not going to be our first choice team, we must prioritise the league."
