ian1964 10,625 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 ANDY LITTLE has returned to training after suffering a hamstring strain but remains a doubt for tomorrowâ??s league meeting with Queenâ??s Park at Hampden. The Rangers forward had to come off in the first half of Wednesdayâ??s 3-0 win over Clyde at Ibrox with the problem. After the match, Light Blues manager Ally McCoist said he expected the Northern Ireland international would struggle to be fit for the game with the Spiders. And although Little was able to work with the squad this morning after receiving treatment yesterday, it remains to be seen if he is named in the pool for the fixture at Hampden. Lewis Macleod is fine to perform after he had to come off in midweek having taken an accidental elbow in the face. And Ian Black is now available again after returning to full training earlier this week having missed the last five matches because of a knee problem. He faces a battle to reclaim his starting spot though after some impressive showings from Kyle Hutton while he has deputised in his absence. On top of that, Kane Hemmings is in contention once more having been out since the summer with a knee injury which required surgery. And Lee Wallace is available after the red card he received against Annan was reduced to a yellow at a disciplinary hearing yesterday, meaning he won't serve any suspension. Dean Shiels is, like Little, another who will be given as long as possible to prove himself as his calf is sore after he returned as a substitute following a recent lay off two days ago. Kevin Kyle is out, however, but Anestis Argyriou returns and he and Chris Hegarty will compete for the right-back role. http://www.rangers.co.uk/news/headlines/item/3011-gers-injury-latest 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

craig 5,199 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Hutton deserves to remain in the team. Our CM's look as if they have better balance without Black in there. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ergatrude 0 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Hutton deserves to remain in the team. Our CM's look as if they have better balance without Black in there. I think Hutton is weaker on the ball but can pick out a better pass than Black. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
