Simek poser for Laws

The USA international has been in fine form this season but had to undergo a fitness test before the Birmingham match last Saturday.

The right-back has hurt his ankle and is set to miss out on the Hillsborough finale against Peter Grant's Norwich side.

With Simek missing, Lee Bullen is set to deputise at right-back with Tommy Spurr moving across from left-back to partner Richard Wood in the middle.

John Hills may be given a last chance to impress at left-back although if Peter Gilbert gets given the go-ahead over the former Everton and Gillingham defender, it looks as if his Hillsborough days are numbered as he is out of contract in the summer.

Jermaine Johnson could start on the right although most likely, Brian Laws will keep with Deon Burton and Steve MacLean in attack with Marcus Tudgay operating on the flank.
