On casualties, Shola Ameobi (shoulder) and Danny Simpson (ankle) he said:
“I know Shola will be touch and go, Danny Simpson probably not, but certainly the Cardiff game.”
Moving on to longer term knee casualty, Steven Taylor, who is probably suffering with a “grade one” ligament sprain, he added:
“Steven Taylor will be out for a while, certainly a good few weeks, but at the moment, I’m not sure how long. He’s just being assessed by a couple of people.”
Meanwhile, the Stratford Supremo’s hunt for defensive reinforcements goes on. Though latest recruit, Mike Williamson seemed to slot in very well to the defensive gap left by Steven Taylor, more will be required if the the Toon’s current injury woes continue. On a brighter note though, much needed right back, Ryan Taylor will be back for the Leicester game, leaving us with a probable back four of R. Taylor, Williamson, Coloccini and Kadar.
Just put this on the previous thread, but for those who miss it Newcastle, west brom and forest have all made bids for Moses according to his agent
