Hoolahan returns to training
Paul Lambert says he is hopeful of being able to name midfielder Wes Hoolahan in his side before the end of the season. Hoolahan's absence with a thigh strain has provoked something of a conspiracy theory - outside the confines of the Colney training centre at least.

Hoolahan's absence with a thigh strain has provoked something of a conspiracy theory - outside the confines of the Colney training centre at least.
Although the Irishman was on the training field on Thursday, the City boss will wait until today before he makes a decision ahead of the game at Charlton.
“He did a bit of running yesterday so we will see how he feels this morning,” said Lambert. “I have to wait and see how he's feeling himself.
“He's doing okay, he's doing alright.”
The fear among supporters is that Hoolahan is out for the rest of the season, although Lambert played that down yesterday.
