Nursing Lewis
Wed 13 Feb 2008
Lewis McGugan is an injury concern for Nottingham Forest ahead of their League One date with Swindon at The City Ground on Saturday.
The teenage midfielder picked up a back injury in last night's 1-1 draw with Leeds after an accidental collision with former Reds teammate David Prutton.
McGugan was forced out of the action on the hour mark and is a worry for manager Colin Calderwood ahead of the weekend action.
He told us: "Lewis already had a bit of discomfort in his back and took another knock last night, so we'll have to look after him."
Forest will definitely be without last night's goal-scorer Julian Bennett on Saturday, as well as striker Grant Holt - both of whom are suspended. But striker Junior Agogo , who is due to report back to the club tomorrow from Africa Cup of Nations duty with Ghana, should be available.
