Horwood is on loan from Sheffield United and has been suspended for the last two games thanks to a red card at Bury. Horwood had a previous loan spell with Quakers earlier in the campaign. The loan spell in the middle of October came when Martin Gray bought the Hartlepool born player to the club during his time as caretaker manager. He made his debut in the 1-1 draw at Hereford United but played only one more game.
