Peltier banned for Boxing Day

23 December 2010 11:30
Huddersfield defender Lee Peltier will sit out his one-game ban when Hartlepool visit. Peltier was due to miss the postponed game at Brentford last week but skipper Peter Clarke will return to the side following his suspension. Midfielder Damien Johnson, on loan from Plymouth, has been ruled out for the rest of the season due to cruciate knee ligament damage and defender Gary Naysmith must wait a little longer for his return from a lengthy absence due to a broken bone in his foot. Striker Benik Afobe, on loan from Arsenal, is expected to be recalled to the squad after recently returning to the Emirates Stadium to take part in an FA Youth Cup game for the Gunners.
