Sheff U - Head2Head & early team news
Last updated : 24 February 2005 By Bigrich.....
There is no danger to the game despite the heavy snowfall over the last couple of days, and the worst is now reportedly over.
Both teams are struggling with their league form over recent weeks (months in our case!) but the Blades will have one eye on next weeks FA Cup replay with Arsenal.
The Millers welcomed Rob Scott back to training this week and he could feature in the squad, Martin McIntosh is still injured but will be restarting training next week. Apart from that Alan Knill has a full squad of 17 to pick from.
Following the Sunderland game, Knilly mentioned that the front pairing of Will Hoskins and Martin Butler could well feature again. But he is continuing to try to bring in new blood.
Colin has a couple of problems though. Keeper Paddy Kenny was injured during the 3-1 defeat against Plymouth on Tuesday, former Miller Phil Barnes has been recalled from his loan spell at Torquay.
Colins attempts to sign Stoke forward Ade Akinbiyi have been thwarted by Burnley and as a result Luke Beckett has also eben recalled from a loan spell at Huddersfield where he scored 6 goals in 7 games.
