The line-ups for tonight's match against Peterborough have been announced and may add substance to the rumours that key players may have played their last game for Town.
Roy Keane has previously said: "There are certainly one or two players from the weekend who are unlikely to play for me again. And I’ve told them that.
"I’m still learning about these players, but eventually you have to make a decision about one or two and say ‘I don’t like what I’m seeing’. That’s not just on Saturday’s game, but the end of last season and pre-season as well.
So, missing tonight are Jon Stead and Owen Garvan from the 18 named for the Carling Cup match. Is this an indication that they won't play again for the club?
The Town side in full: R Wright, D Wright, Bruce, Balkestein, Delaney, Martin, Colback, Healy, Quinn, Couñago and Priskin. On the substitutes' bench is Lee-Barrett, McAuley, Smith, Trotter, Walters, Upson and Wickham.
