Ranger makes way for Carroll for Magpies
TEENAGE striker Nile Ranger has been given a breather after an impressive start to life in the Newcastle first team at Blackpool.[LNB] Ranger has been named among the substitutes at Bloomfield Road after Chris Hughton's decision to recall Andy Carroll after a groin injury had kept him out since August.[LNB] Hughton has also made one other enforced change, with the suspended Alan Smith replaced by Nicky Butt in the heart of the Magpies midfield.[LNB] Newcastle are looking to claim the point that will take them back to the top of the Championship. BLACKPOOL (4-4-2): Rachubka; Eardley, Evatt, Baptiste, Crainey; Bouazza, Southern, Adam, Vaughan; Ormerod, Euell. Subs: Gilks, Clarke, Martin, Emmanuel-Thomas, Bangura, Edwards, Almond.[LNB] NEWCASTLE UNITED (4-4-1-1): Harper; Simpson, S Taylor, Coloccini, Enrique; R Taylor, Butt, Nolan, Barton; Guthrie; Carroll.
