good news for once

Athletic go into Saturday’s six-pointer game at Stockport with good news for once. John Eyre has a 50-50 chance of playing after making good recovery from his hamstring injury which he picked up recently at Swindon Town. Talbot said, “John will do some light work and we’ll see how he gets on. It is a slight risk but he’s the type of experienced player we need in our present position.”
