    Is there any news on the players who are currently out injured and any timeframes on when they will be back?

    Ismail and Pritchard will probably never play for the club again. Novak may return before the end of the season which is a shame really because I think he'd work well with Rowe. Hosannah is a bit of a mystery. I haven't seen an update on him and get the feeling we may have seen the last of him too (unless there was an update in the press conference yesterday).

    What about Staunton? I'm sure he was back training weeks ago yet he's still nowhere to be seen on match days.

    In the case of Staunton I think he is down the pecking order until one of the defenders form drops. Hosannah we are told is a fortnight away every week

    Last week Hosannah and Ismail were on the grass at Apperley Bridge doing running exercises. In the words of the gent whom observed the training, Ismail was blowing out of his arse

    Unfortunately for Staunton, I don't think he suits a back 4 which is a real shame.

    Wasn’t Staunton used as a DM in the youth set up? Could be useful to replace Watt/Sutton if they need to be rested.

    No idea, but if so it could be worth a go.

    If he's vegetarian, he should try to tap up FGR.

    Think Watt will be desperate to play at Carlisle.

    Ishmail and Pritchard are goners. Staunton, well down the pecking order now unless two of the CBs are injured, Novak, who knows and Hosannah has become the Lee Power of this generation.

    With his range of passing I am sure Reece Staunton could play as a defensive midfielder if Watt or Sutton need a rest.

    Didn't mention him because he's available but isn't getting picked. I'd imagine he'll get a game if we look like missing out on the play offs.

    That doesn't mean much. You see Phil Jones doing running exercises at Carrington but he hasn't been fit to play a game since Bruno Fernandes signed. And there are plenty of others injury-prone players who seem fine when its just doing running but the minute they step it up they quickly break down again

    Has anyone heard how Cooke got on seeing the specialist yesterday.It's not usually a good sign when the club seek a specialist opinion.

    Didn't he used to play for us once. Or was it twice?

    The club are keeping very quiet on the Novak situation too OGF. Thought Mr. Sparks was going to be open with the fans?
