JP Kalala; seen on the Shrimpers training pitch Thursday morning
Midfielder Jean-Paul Kalala dropped out of the squad for both Oxford matches following a family bereavement and was given as much time as he wanted by Blues boss Paul Sturrock to get back to the team.
Well, it looks as if the talented former Yeovil man, who was certainly missed in his role protecting the back four in the league meeting with the U's, will be back in contention for the weekend's FA Cup first round tie with Preston North End after he was spotted training with his team mates Thursday morning.
Also back doing his press-up's, surprisingly given Luggy's comments earlier, was reserve keeper Daniel Bentley who seems to have recovered enough from his back problem to get a place on the bench as the news that West Brom have now given the Shrimpers permission to play loanee Luke Daniels at Deepdale after all will surely see him start the game.
