Town midfielder Ian Westlake could be in contention for Town’s game against Derby County on Saturday.
It was feared that Westlake would be out for the rest of the season when he injured his ankle last month. Westlake: “I hope to be back in contention for this Saturday's game. Source: Evening Star
“When I hurt my ankle last month, I was told I would be out until the summer.
“They said they thought my season was over and the fear was that I'd ruptured ligaments.
“This was very scary, especially when experts started talking about reconstruction operations.
“I had a few sleepless nights and it's fair to say I wasn't very good company at that time.
“But it turns out the injury is nowhere near as bad as first thought.
”I've been trying to build it up and I trained with the youth team yesterday.
“Hopefully I will be with the senior lads tomorrow, Thursday and Friday.
“The last few weeks have been tough to watch. We are having a sticky spell and you can see the confidence in the team isn't as high as it should be.”
