The latest news from Dolly and his treatment room:

Paul Thirlwell has been doing a lot of running over the course of the last week or so. He's done a good bit of ball work with me, and some strengthening work, and we hope to have him back in training this week. He'll need five or six days training before we consider him for a game, which is ideal, because there is no Reserve game this week. All being well he should be involved next Tuesday in the Reserve game against Preston. Once we get a game under his belt, and if all goes well, then he should be available for the gaffer. 

Stephen Hindmarch came off the pitch on Saturday with an ankle sprain. He's with me now, and we'll see how that settles in the next day or two. The Youth Cup game is on Wednesday evening, so we'll leave that decision to as late as possible on Wednesday afternoon. At present he's probably less than 50:50, but we'll see how it goes.

That's all for now,

Keep well,

Dolly
