Late decision on trio

12 February 2010 09:17
Blackpool boss Ian Holloway must decide whether to recall any of his suspended trio for the trip to rivals Preston. Barry Bannan, Neal Eardley and Ishmel Demontagnac were spotted in a Blackpool nightspot last weekend. They were subsequently axed for the trip to Sheffield Wednesday in midweek, when the Seasiders slumped to their third straight defeat. Bannan and Eardley are major doubts for the Deepdale showdown as x-rays have confirmed that Bannan has a broken toe, while Eardley has a knee problem which is causing him discomfort. Demontagnac is fully fit and may come back into contention, although Holloway warned: "I don't know whether I'll bring them back for Saturday yet." Midfielder Charlie Adam is suspended but striker Brett Ormerod is available after completing a three-match ban.
