Imps midfielder Chris "Buzz" Cornelly is finally back from an anterior cruciate ligament injury which has lasted 18 months. Cornelly who played his last game in the playoff final against Bournemouth will feature in today's reserve game against his home town club, Huddersfield Town.

Cornelly signed from Ashton United just after Christmas in 2003 and impressed fans with his displays and lighting quick speed and although he failed to score, he became a firm fans favourite. However, just a week before the start of the 2003/4 season, he suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury in his knees. He looked set to return at the beginning of this season but the injury hadn't heeled properly and there was a small tear ruling him out until now.

The game today sees him up against a very experienced Huddersfield side who will include 8 of the 11 players who started against Lincoln in the playoff semi finals.
