I'm not saying they haven't had injuries, but we played a striker with an injury, didn't we? Billy and Donny might have been 90% and played, but my guess is that Tufty wants them 100% on Sunday. We still have a chance of being top of the league this season but we can only spank the piggies on their turf next week.Quote:

I hope I'm right mate because having fit goal scorers in the side next week is ***** mate. As we saw yesterday, once a team realises that there's no real threat up front from open play barring a bit of brilliance, they can adjust accordingly and it'll give them a boost like it did Norwich. Hopefully the opposite will happen if Billy and the Don turn out next week with old boy Clarke on the bench, and they'll have a lot more to worry about. UTB
From rumors only , he was holding his side in the second half of the match , apparently someone has seen him in a&e !!Quote:
