“Alex has improved.
“He will be one we have to assess today and take the advice from the medical team.
“He has a chance of making the game tomorrow.”
Jason Tindall on the situation with certain other Newcastle United players…
“A couple of lads are getting closer.
“We will assess the squad today and see where everyone is.
“The injury situation is certainly getting better.
“Harvey [Barnes] and Callum [Wilson] are probably a little bit ahead of Joe [Willock].”
Jason Tindall on Eddie Howe’s chances of making the Luton match…:
“He is feeling a little bit under the weather. I’d expect him to be on the touchline tomorrow.”
