Is John Ruddy in line for a first team return against Villa?

[Sing Up The South Stand 0]

The reason I say that is he didn''t play for the U21s at Newcastle the other day. It could merely be due to the distance, although you''d think they''d want him to play another. Or are they working hard in training to get him back for Villa?
