Welcome again to the treatment room.
First off, let me give you the good news - Player of the Year
JOE DEVERA is fit to resume in the away fixture against Lincoln City this weekend.
Joe had to leave Monday's training session because of a muscle in the region of his bottom tightening. He missed out on the visit to Dagenham & Redbridge but is now back in contention, hopefully, as the first of three central defenders who have needed treatment this week.
JEREMY de MAGALHAES collected a right groin injury in training on Monday ... just two days after making his Football League debut at Chester City and less than a week after signing for the Bees. Jeremy, I am afraid, will be out for three to six weeks.
I am taking skipper
ISMAIL YAKUBU to a consultant next Wednesday for an injection for his groin problem. It looks like he is sidelined for another two weeks.
Last, but by no means least, I am delighted to report that
NICKY DEVERDICS is progressing well after his double hernia operation and the prognosis is that he'll be back in a week or two.
Fingers crossed.
