Barnard; Substituted in West Yorkshire after 'a tug on his calf'

The good Lord has been injury free this season, but after his 84th minute substitution Saturday at Huddersfield reports have confirmed there was an ankle injury, which we all hope is a slight one.

Blues boss Steve Tilson spoke to the Echo: "Lee got a tug on his calf and that's why he had to come off. We certainly won't be taking any risks with Barney and the sensible decision was to take him off before he made it any worse. We will just have to wait and see how it settles down in the next 24 hours or so now."
