Scott Young
has recovered from the back problem that has kept him out all season and he is ready and waiting to play. The most likely return is in the next reserve team game on Wednesday January 15th at Swindon.

Daniel Gabbidon was receiving similar manipulation treatment today that helped cure Scott and it's hope Daniel will be able to play without pain.

"What the specialist has told us is extremely good news. We want him able to play and train on a pain-free basis. That's not the case now, but we are getting closer to that." Said Lennie.

Gabbidon may get a chance in one of the early new year games

"Danny will be training next week," said Lawrence. "He won't play against Colchester United or Luton Town.But we are looking towards that run of three games in six days - I want him to play in at least one of those."

Des Hamilton is out for a few of weeks with a hamstring strain.

Andy Jordan and David Hughes are both back in training.

Gareth Whalley is due to have the cast removed from his leg but is still a couple of months away. February / March the best guess as to a return date.
