He did a fitness test on Saturday, so can't be that far away. It's still the same calf injury as far as I'm aware.
He's still in and around the team, saw him in the story of the match video they put on youtube, what I would like to know is if it's reoccurring or a new injury
Also Goodwin in his presser didn't mention him definitely being out of the QP game, said they'd have a decision to make, so timescale will be interesting

...not the players we have been looking at!
Would love to see Meekison given a chance as surely he must be over his injury now, but like you say, i have doubts that Watt will loose his place. Given that Thomson pulled up with cramp late on, Grimshaw will get his place back, but a man can dream, eh!
The swapping of wingers, we did that regularly under a previous manager, and sometimes to very good effect. But Middleton usually gravitates to the middle in most games, and i noticed Cudjoe did that as well on Saturday. Wish they would give it a try at least.
Massive match and we need to get the three points
Going to be important as to who blinks first between us and Raith
I suspect the team will be :
Walton
Grimshaw Holt Gallagher McMann
Sibbald Tillson
Cudjoe Watt Middleton
Moult
Come on United !!!!
Cudjoe has to cut in because he hasn't really got the pace for a foot race, Middleton has the pace but because opposition managers know this they usually double up on him which means his crosses aren't as accurate as we'd want, or he has to turn back.
The key to opening defences is that number 10 position behind Moult. That could be Cudjoe/Middleton cutting inside occasionally and from opposite wings and/or Meekison who looks like he could be ready to provide better service to Moult than Watt does. But 10 minutes at the end of a match is no use.
Just got to keep winning, still have 2 point gap if you factor in goal difference, the goal diff will be there to the end as it's not getting overturned so Raith have to finish on more pts than us
Would not start Tillson, pity Spoony hit injured, and don't think Cudjoe will start
Think it'll be Kai Watt Middleton and Moult up tpp
