Bart-Williams to Return to Addicks?

Last updated : 04 November 2003 By Site Editor
The former Nottingham Forrest player's second month of loan from Alan Curbishley's side ends on November 14th, and with the game against Forrest likely to be postponed, and Chris being suspended for the game against George Burley's Derby, Joe Royle may decide to send the former England Under 21 international home rather than pay his wages whilst he is unavaliable.

The Former Sheffield Wednesday star has been substituted in the last few games with Tommy Miller coming on, a move that is likely to be made from the start for next Saturday's game with Derby.

Speaking of the chances of Bart-Williams returning home, Ipswich Town#s former Everton manager Joe Royle told the East Anglian Daily Times: "We are having a look at that situation. We are well aware of the dates of the loan agreement."

As well as Bart-Williams being ruled out of the reunitation with George Burley, Town's longest serving player Richard Naylor will miss out with suspension, with John McGreal, Gerard Nash and Scott Mitchell challenging for Naylor's spot.
