Owen out of Derby ???? Stories sweeping the city of a training ground injury sustained by Michael Owen seem to have further depressed an already down-beat support following Saturday's poor show. However we understand that the England striker pulled up after feeling a hamstring twinge and his involvement in Tuesday's training session was curtailed as a precautionary measure. Hopes remain high that Owen will still feature in his first Tyne-wear derby on Sunday, but a safety-first approach saw Ameobi pulled out of Tuesday's reserve team defeat at Birmingham in case he picked up a knock. Reserve 'keeper Steve Harper had also been in line for some match practice at St.Andrew's, but remained on Tyneside as he continues to recover from an injury:evil:
hopefully not too serious wor youngun said he just tweaked it so should be able to play but do we really want to risk him being out for 6-8 weeks ??? I think hel play some part in the game even if he doesnt we should have enough to beat the charv army !
apparently it's a load of bollocks, he pulled up in training but he's gona be fine. dolano's back, bowyer looks like he's gona be fit
yeah nowt to worry about, looks like he is nearly 100% to play, Nobby will be class to make his 2nd debut against the scummage
as long as nobby is fit, he will make a difference, eventually someone who can cross a ball it isn't much to ask for from a pro footballer but fkn hell the amount of ppl that struggle to deliver is staggering
Just rang him and he said he did not need to train to score past the mackem defence so he is off to the pub
