Parker set for reserves run-out

The 22-year-old left-back, sidelined since being forced out of the home win over Exeter on the opening day of the season with a groin injury, is scheduled for a run out against Scunthorpe. Parker, who came through the Leeds academy to make his first-team debut in a Carling Cup clash at Macclesfield in 2007, has had hip surgery to resolve the problem and is now ready to force his way back into manager Simon Grayson's plans. The former England youth international will be joined in an experienced reserve-team line-up by fellow first-team players Max Gradel, Andy Robinson, David Prutton, Paul Huntington, Lubo Michalik and Tresor Kandol.
