With Leon, Magenis and Perry still out, Wello and Graham 50/50 then I'd go

Wellens/Lomax
Gardner
Shenton
Meli
Foster
Gaskill
Eastmond
Elemes
Roby
Graham/TP
Solila
Flannery
Wilkin

Moore/Lomax
Clough
TP/Dixon
Ashurst

I expect us to line up something like:

1. B Hodgson
2. J Monaghan
3. M Blythe
4. R Atkins
5. C Riley
6. L Briers
7. R Myler
8. A Morley
9. M Monaghan
10. G Carvell
11. L Anderson
12. B Westwood
13. B Harrison

M Higham
D Solomona
P Wood
S Grix

I didn't know Magennis was injured again? When did that happen?

Wrist injury, don't know any more than that.

I'd expect Graham and Wellens to play.

Wrist injury according to today's conference

Just seen it on Twitter. I hope Jammer is fit, otherwise we could be a bit short in the grunt department!

I must have missed it. Whats up with wheeler? Has he crumbled again?
I was so hopeful he would have a protracted period in the first team injury free.



Hey ho.

Of course he'll be fit, as will Wellens.

Wello went for a scan this week. Presumably, if there is still the possibility that he will be fit, then the scan didn't show sufficient damage for the operation that was mooted.

As for Wheeler, yes: he has torn a muscle in his back. I'm not sure how bad that is. I saw him pull up at Cardiff. But he continued playing.

If Wellens and Graham do play, I think Simmons will go with this:

Wellens
Gardner
Shenton
Meli
Foster
Gaskell
Eastmond
Graham
Roby
LMS
Soliola
Wilkin
Flannery

Lomax
Puletua
Clough
Moore

I'd bet on it they'd feature. They always make sure they're fit to play us.

They are the same wehn playing Celtic to, they always seem to be fit for that game.
