Manx team to play Wolves later this month

Peel duo Rhys Oates and Matthew Skillicorn are among the new inclusions in Paul Jones' latest Isle of Man senior men's team.

They'll be involved in a friendly away at Wolves under-23s on 23 October in preparation for an inter-island tournament in Anglesy next year.

There are also call-ups for Douglas Athletic goalkeeper Matthew Quirk and St Mary's midfielder Declan Cummins.

Lee Gale, Daniel Bell and Tom Wood are the other Peel players in the squad, while last season's Railway Cup and FA Cup winners Corinthians also have five involved.

Among them are Sean Doyle and Stephen Whitley who have 19 goals between them so far this season.

Full Isle of Man squad for the match v Wolves on 23 October:

Daniel Bell, Ryan Burns, Declan Cummins, Sam Caine, Sean Doyle, Lee Gale, Alex Harrison, Frank Jones, Cameron Lee, Jack McVey, Rhys Oates, Matthew Quirk, Daniel Simpson, Matthew Skillicorn, Stephen Whitley, Tom Wood
