Grant wins team place
Last updated : 18 April 2005 By Tony Scholes
An injury in the home defeat against Sunderland at the beginning of March has restricted Grant’s appearances, and how he’s been missed. Saturday was his first start for a month since the 2-0 defeat at Wolves when he clearly played whilst still carrying the injury.
Like most of the side his best play came in the first half and twice he even came close to adding to the two goals he has already scored this season.
He wins his place in a side that has been taken from nine different teams with both Coventry and QPR having two players in the final eleven.
The team this week is: Luke Steele (Coventry), Neil Cox (Watford), Gary Kelly (Leeds), Danny Shittu (QPR), David Vaughan (Crewe), Micky Doyle (Coventry), Nicky Southall (Gillingham), Tony Grant (Burnley), Dean Whitehead (Sunderland), Kevin Gallen (QPR), Dave Nugent (Preston).
