Boothroyd looking forward to selection headache Aidy Boothroyd has said he is looking forward to seeing Isaac Osbourne and Gary Deegan fit and playing again, even if their return to full fitness will give him a selection problem. Issac Osbourne's knee injury is taking a long time to heal, but Boothroyd want's his recovery to be complete and not rushed. Boothroyd explained, “Ossy’s situation hasn’t really changed. "He’s been out running for a long time but we’ve got to take it very, very slow with him and make sure that he’s properly looked after. I don’t want him to have any setbacks." Gary Deegan suffered a stress fracture in his ankle while trying to catch up in pre season training after recovering from another ankle injury. "Gary is making good progress and I’m really pleased with him.  said, Boothroyd, "Michael McBride and his physio team are doing a great job with him so we hope it won’t be too long." “I haven’t seen Gary or Isaac play yet, so I’m looking forward to that.”
