Webster worry for Saints showdown

The centre-back was replaced by Darren Dods 14 minutes into United's 4-1 victory over the Bairns on Sunday.United are waiting to see if the problem settles down but caretaker boss Peter Houston is anxious over the lack of central defenders with Lee Wilkie still out with a knee injury."Webster was feeling his calf and I think we got him off before he has actually torn his calf muscle," Houston said."It's always a worry because Webby has been sensational since he came and we have another couple of games this week."I don't know how he'll be for Wednesday but credit to Darren Dods who got left out but came on and did his job."The worry is we're down to two centre-halves in the club."Houston also took off midfielder Prince Buaben and striker David Goodwillie but they are expected to make the Tannadice clash."Buaben came off with an injury as well, his thigh was a bit sore and we got him off before it pulled," Houston added."David Goodwillie has taken a lot of knocks in the last couple of games and we took him off but that was more of a precaution."Meanwhile, Houston backed former Falkirk team-mate Eddie May to turn the club around after their disappointing display led to a mass exodus of fans well before the final whistle."Eddie has done a smashing job," Houston said. "It's an excellent football club and he is rebuilding it."It's going to take a wee bit of time and the punters will just need to recognise that. Rome wasn't built in a day."
