Stead Back and Fit for Derby

Last updated : 14 April 2009 By Site Editor

Former Sheffield United striker Stead missed both Easter games against Doncaster Rovers and Bristol City with a back injury that was sustained last week in training, but now Town's top goalscorer is well on the road to recovery and has returned to light training.

Speaking to the Official Club Website, Town Physio Matt Byard said: "Jon had a sore back but he's on the mend now and has done some light training work.

"He will increase his workload through the week and providing there is no reaction, should be okay for the Norwich match."
