Veteran set to return

Last updated : 22 December 2006 By Andy Parsons

Crossley was taken off with a small problem which could have become worse if he prolonged his stay on the pitch against Birmingham last week.

He went down unchallenged and was eventually replaced in goal by Lee Bullen – after Brian Laws used up all of his substitutions.


Andrews' knee problem could rule him out of the clash though, and with Glenn Whelan back from suspension, Yoann Folly will be itching to take his place against his old club.


Laws is still hoping to keep both Crossley and Andrews on loan from Fulham and Coventry City respectively but that all depends on whether the knocks they picked up against The Blues are serious ones or not.
