No talk of an injury, we are just limited to the amount of players we can have on the bench.

I think he starts Tuesday as bbm will be looking to rotate with 3 games this week so probably saving him

If this is correct it'll be a big disappointment for the player who would have been looking forward to getting some game time.

Has struggled with injuries already in his short career - hope it's not a bad one.

"Excuse me gaffer - I know I've just arrived at the club and we've got an important game on Saturday that could be vital in our promotion race but can I have the day off please? It's my birthday and I'm a big boy now.

Mum's got a big cake and all my bezzies are coming round for sausages on sticks and fizzy pop and mum's got me one of those donkeys full of sweeties that you hit with a stick.

Please gaffer please!"

Listening to BBM's comments, it was a precaution because he didn't get through training satisfactory. Manager didn't want to take the risk because it was early in his loan.

Said he will hopefully be back available for Tuesday.
