In Dubious Battle 0 Posted August 9, 2007 News section of the site says that the five players with the bug are all doubts for preston!that''s ostembor & hughes both our options at right back & martin & cureton meaning we''ll have no choice but to go with strihavka & brown up front with huckerby out as well it could be a weak side we put out on saturday. fingers crossed they''ll all be ok.

First Jedi 0 Posted August 9, 2007 Hopefully we''re "doing a Chelsea", lying, and they''ll all be fine! [:)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Unlucky Fried Kitten 0 Posted August 9, 2007 If Hughes and Otsemobor both still have the trots, surely that now makes Cave Brown a shoo-in at right back? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pete Raven 276 Posted August 9, 2007 Highly unlikely CA and I''d be very surprised if any of them make the trip to Preston. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pete Raven 276 Posted August 10, 2007 Ah, didn''t realise he was referring to me. This line gives a few clues..."At least four senior players have been ruled out of the season opener at Preston tomorrow after being told to stay away from the club''s training centre this week after falling ill following a staff barbecue on Sunday."But who knows, they may make a swift recovery. When I had food poisoning there was no way I''d have been able to have played football on the Saturday if I''d contracted it less than a week before then. Although I''m not a super-fit athlete...Bear in mind they wouldn''t have trained all week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
