Richard Naylor has emerged as another worry ahead of Sunday s game with West Ham. The striker is rated 50/50 after picking up an ankle knock at Southampton.
Chris Makin is still Town s main doubt ahead of Saturday s sell-out clash with Southampton. Makin has so far failed to overcome a foot injury and could miss only his second league game this season.
Town still have around 2,000 tickets available for tonight s Worthington Cup semi-final with Birmingham City. Either it seems fans are not interested in watching Birmingham or some have felt that they had no chance of getting a ticket to the game.
