17 November 2010 12:30
Derby are still trying to get to the bottom of Chris Porter`s hip problems. The striker continues to see specialists and undergo scans on the troublesome injury that has blighted his time at Pride Park. "This week he has had a bone scan and he is having a gait analysis," Rams manager Nigel Clough told the Derby Telegraph. "We will have a get-together in the next couple of days with the doctors and the specialists to try to ascertain what the next step is. "We are sending Chris to see every possible specialist we can and looking at different parts of the hip." Porter has made only 18 starts, and 34 appearances in total, since joining Derby from Motherwell in January 2009. He has made just one start this season, in the Carling Cup defeat at Crewe, and has not featured for the first team since the npower Championship game at Coventry on August 21.
