Much as I like Steven Reid, it'd be a massive gamble playing him next month. There's no way he'll be match fit even if he comes back for Blackburn this weekend.
I expect Given tp be back, his injury sounds relatively slight.
Hey All - does anyone have an update on the GIVEN and Stephen Reid injury situations? - will they be fit and ready for slovakia and czech rep - i am hearing so many different versions of them being injured and fit - does anyone know what exactly is the situation with them?

Given has a slight groin strain but worryingly according to Sam Allardyce it hasn't shown signs of improvement the last 2 weeks
So, it's going to be touch and go. It wouldn't surprise me if his first game back is against slovakia....he's that important and will be desperate to play even if it's against his clubs wishes.
Me too
In Trap we trust
Andy Reid will definitely be fat for September :0)
TP, you are on good form today, whats wrong? is the missus away
I'm a bloke,I'm an ocker
And I really love your knockers,I'm a labourer by day,
I **** up all me pay,Watching footy on TV,
Just feed me more VB,Just pour my beer,And get my smokes, And go away
Irish boss Stephen Staunton told the Irish Independent, “Shay is a lot better than we were first told. I thought we were going to lose him for the two games in September but it’s looking as if he’ll be ok.
“Then again, it’s a muscle injury and we’ll take nothing for granted so we’ll just have to wait and see. Once you start picking up injuries in any area and it’s a recurrence, you’ve got that possibility it will continue to happen.”
I think Given will make it back......evenif Reid is back i wouldnt risk it. His long injury lay off started awyt Germany last year so im sure Blackburn wont want him playinh
Stephen Reid is brutal anyway. I don't understand his fan club. He is a big lummox with a terrible first touch. He is in no way the future of our midfield, at any rate.
Spurs also wanted him last summer.
The same Alex Ferguson who is the most successful manager in English history?
Re: Bellion: every manager has made a bad signing.
As for O'Shea, Ferguson hasn't made O'Shea a key member of his squad, rather he has recognized him as a very versatile player (which he is), and has used him accordingly.
When Man U has a fully fit squad O'Shea is a bench player every time.
I don't even like Man U, but to claim that Ferguson is a poor judge of talent just smacks of idiocy.
Regarding Bellion, Ferguson had just signed a scout from Sunderland and upon arriving at Old Trafford he convinced Ferguson to buy Bellion. He was free so hardly a disaster
Given was on the bench today for Newcastle. Hopefully, he's fit enough to start for them next week so he gets a bit of match practice in. fingers crossed he gets no further set-backs!
San Marino are going to be a handful as the group goes on." - Steve Staunton reacts to performance against San Marino.
Carr could be out for several weeks after being stretchered off today for Newcastle.
Good news in my view.
In Trap we trust
not exactly gutted about carr to be honest
Was he crazy!! Yeah , in a very special way , an Irishman.
I slept, and dreamed that life was Beauty;
I woke, and found that life was Duty.
