Bardsley rues reserve wash-out

Bardsley, signed on loan from Manchester United for the remainder of the season, has not played since he turned out for Rangers against Inverness at the end of October. He had been pencilled in to play for the reserves in tonight's match but the visitors were forced to postpone as they are unable to field a team due to injury and sickness. The right-back is ineligible to play in Saturday's game at Old Trafford but could make his senior debut against Watford on 20 January.
