Noble wait for Exeter

23 December 2010 11:30
Exeter boss Paul Tisdale is sweating on the fitness of David Noble ahead of the Boxing Day clash with Swindon. The midfielder is a doubt after picking up a suspected knee injury in the Grecians' stunning 5-1 win over Sheffield Wednesday in the only game to be played in npower League One last Saturday. However, Troy Archibald-Henville makes his return after missing the clash against the Owls due to a one-match ban. The defender may not be guaranteed a staring place though as, in his absence, Billy Jones made a good impression against Wednesday. Tisdale has no other injury or suspension worries, though, with Exeter playing four games in nine days over the festive period, he may opt to rest some of his players.
