Better news for Liddell

Oldham Athletic veteran Andy Liddell could feature in the busy festive programme as he steps up his recovery from an Achilles injury.
The 34-year-old has been sidelined for five weeks but the injury has responded well to treatment.
"If Andy gets the all-clear from the results of the scan we can then step up his workload and maybe he'll be back for the Christmas programme," physio Matt Jenkinson told the Oldham Chronicle.
Meanwhile, Sean Gregan has been forced to have surgery on his Achilles injury and is likely to be out of action until early March.
"You're looking at a three-month rehab, but I've spoken to the surgeon and he says the operation went well and the signs are encouraging," added Jenkinson.
