SORRY the Blog is late again this week.

I'll be honest, I've had better weeks.

My foot injury meant I missed out on Tuesday's game against Norwich, which was a blow. I hate missing games but I just couldn't be risked. I thought we did very well and deserved at least a point and, up until they scored, we looked on course for all three.

A bit like with Leeds earlier in the season, Norwich punished us late on and I suppose that's what the best teams in this division are capable of.

I've made progress with my foot but I've had a bit of a virus, so I'm feeling sorry for myself to be honest.

I'll battle against the odds to be right for Saturday, although it may come a bit too soon.
