McPhail eyes return

Barnsley midfielder Stephen McPhail is set to return from injury in time to be in contention for this weekend's visit of Blackpool to Oakwell.

The former Leeds United ace has been working closely with Tykes fitness coach Tom Little after a spell on the sidelines.

He told the Sheffield Star: "I've had a good ten days. I was training with Tom last week and joined in with the squad on Tuesday.

"It felt good and I'm hoping to have some involvement on Saturday."
