Harper Wishes He Had Made The Derby!
Steve Harper wants to be back in the side by December. Steve Harper: “I hurt myself celebrating the fourth goal when Shola Ameobi volleyed it in. “While everyone else was jumping around I was nearly crying. I’ll gladly hurt my arm celebrating that. “I would have loved to have been involved, it was one of those once in a lifetime games. I’ve played in four derby games and haven’t lost, but this was something very special. “You could tell by the city afterwards and the fans what they were singing on the day showed exactly what they thought of it. “I feel good. It will be five weeks next Wednesday that it happened and I’m on target for the timescale I was set. “I’ve got a full range of movement now so I’ve just got to work on the strength and hopefully I’ll be diving around again in three weeks. “I see the surgeon again for my eight week check and hopefully he will give me the green light. It’s just getting the confidence and strength in it to come back in December, hopefully nearer the start than the end of it.”
