Home England Gordon ready to return

Gordon ready to return

“It’s early stages, but it’s great to be back out there,” Gordon told the club’s official website.

“I’m not going to predict when I will be back. All I can say is that the signs are encouraging.

“I’ve missed seven games and I didn’t think I would be out that long.

“After tests, it emerged that I had a crack in my Talus bone, which is basically a bone in my ankle. It normally takes six weeks to heal, it has been five, so I should be nearly there.

“Will I be fit for Bolton on Saturday? It’s hard to say one way or the other. I’ll train for the rest of the week and see how things are.”
