Yates doubtful for Carlisle with hip problem
Posted Thursday, December 13, 2018 by PA
Carlisle forward Jerry Yates is a doubt for the Sky Bet League Two match against Colchester.
Yates, on loan from Rotherham, was forced off early on during last weekend’s 2-0 defeat at MK Dons because of a hip problem.
Midfielder Jamie Devitt and Tom Parkes both came off the bench after their return to fitness, while defender Danny Grainger was an unused substitute as he recovered from a calf problem.
Jason Kennedy is stepping up his rehabilitation from the midfielder’s long-term pelvic problem.
Colchester, who are looking to keep up their promotion push, could have top scorer Luke Norris back in contention to start.
Norris had been sidelined by an ankle problem since the start of November, but the eight-goal forward came on for the closing stages of last weekend’s 1-0 home win over Macclesfield.
Centre-back Tom Eastman is back in contention after recovering from a head injury.
The defender has been missing since the FA Cup defeat to Accrington Stanley after sustaining a small fracture near his eye, but has now resumed full training again.
