Alexander's back to rescue Orient

Gary Alexander is ready to end his injury nightmare by returning at Rushden and Diamonds tomorrow to rescue Leyton Orient's faltering promotion push.

Orient have slipped to 10th in League Two after one win in nine and the absence of Alexander, who has been suffering with an ankle injury since October, has not helped their cause.

Orient will be without loan signing Scott Fitzgerald, who is serving a three-match suspension following his dismissal against Grimsby.
