Gaffer welcomes back injury victims

Last updated : 11 April 2013 By Deano

The gaffer is set to welcome back defenders Claude Davis and Mark Bradley to his squad, whilst Liam Ridehalgh is now fully fit.

Evans said to Millers player: “We’re hoping that Claude will be fit. It’s been 10 day’s since his injury at Gillingham and he’s getting there very quickly. I’m very hopeful that he’ll make it on Saturday.  Mark's just got a bit of bone bruising but if heart, character and tenacity play a part in him being fit then he’ll be available.

“Liam has trained all week and had the benefit of a day off on Wednesday along with the rest of the group, so I’m looking forward to seeing Liam back. People think he can only play at left-back but he played the majority of his time at Chesterfield and at Huddersfield further forward on the left.”

Danny Kearns is still struggling with injury but Evans added: “We think Kearns will miss out at the weekend but he may be fit for Bradford next week."

Lee Frecklington and Johnny Mullins will also be involved this weekend after a virus and suspension respectively.
