Paisley, Scotland (My Sportsbook) - St. Mirren goalie Mark Howard has admitted that he is unlikely to be fully fit for the start of pre-season training with the Buddies. The 22-year-old avoided the need for knee surgery, but is making slow progress in his recovery. He told the Paisley Daily Express: "I picked up this injury in the last game of the season against Hamilton. "To be honest, it was a massive relief to know that I didn't need surgery, but I've been told to rest it for the time being. "The only type of exercise that I can really do is in the swimming pool. But I'm hopeful that I can take part in pre-season, even if it's staggered. "But I'll need to speak to the physio first and foremost to see where we stand." (Courtesy of sportbox.tv) |
