Douglas boost for Robins

03 September 2010 10:00
Swindon captain Jonathan Douglas should be fit to face Carlisle on Saturday despite limping out Tuesday's Johnstone's Paint Trophy tie. The midfielder was forced off after just 22 minutes in the 3-0 win over Southampton due to tight hamstrings but has recovered sufficiently for the weekend clash. Swindon's midfield will also be boosted by the return of David Prutton following a one-match ban. Defender Alan Sheehan looks set to make his debut as he goes straight into the squad after joining on a one-year deal, following the termination of his contract with Leeds. The midweek win saw a number of players push their causes for a starting place when the Robins return to league action, with Michael Timlin, Simon Ferry and Callum Kennedy all impressing.
