Town have only one worry for tonight's match with Huddersfield and that is James Scowcroft who will take a late fitness test on his leg injury. The full squad is R Wright, Salmon, Wilnis, Clapham, Croft, Venus, Mowbray, McGreal, Thetis, Brown, Holland, J Wright, Stockwell, Scowcroft, Johnson, Naylor, Holster, Axeldal and Logan.
Town seem to be continuing their search for a left sided player with the latest name cropping up being that of Matt Lockwood currently at Orient. He is a 23-year-old former QPR and Britstol Rovers player who has impressed in this his second season with the Brisbane Road club. George Burley has neither confirmed nor denied the stories.
Any truth in this story, however, must suggest that the Holland to Spurs/Fox to Ipswich stories are nothing, but newspaper talk.
If you are trying to get hold of ticket stubs for the Norwich game the TWTD Message Board has had a number of people willing to give up their stubs over the last couple of days. A visit might be useful.
Town midfielder Stuart Niven's knee injury is much more serious than was thought. Niven was injured in the reserve match with Colchester a few weeks back and the damage was diagnosed as less than serious. However, it now seems he will need reconstructive surgery on a knee ligament and will be out for the remainder of the season. It is hoped that he will be ready for pre-season next July, which suggests he will be offered some sort of extension to his contract which is up at the end of the season.
Our good luck goes to Stuart for a quick recovery.
Town have announced yet another new member of the commercial staff. John Britten comes in as Sales Manager. John has extensive commercial experience and will look to encourage East Anglian companies to become involved with the club.
