PAPIS Djeeyte is lined up for his FC United debut in the depths of South Yorkshire tonight.

The Senegalese midfielder's international clearance has finally come through and he is likely to get a place on the bench in the UniBond League premier division clash withstruggling Frickley Athletic (7.45pm).

"Papis' clearance coming through is a big boost to us, especially as going to Frickley is always a battle," says manager Karl Marginson.

"I will be picking a team with the conditions in mind. It's an old mining village, the ground is in the shadow of a slag heap and it's the kind of place where if you don't meet the challenge head on you will come unstuck."
