Saha and Boa Morte out for Birmingham game.

last updated Wednesday 24th January 2001, 5:50 PM
The anti-Fulham bias of many League Referees is starting to negatively impact our efforts to gain promotion. More information.

Louis Saha, who collected his 5th yellow card in the Norwich game on the 13/01/01, will now miss the Birmingham home game on the 27/01/01. Luis Boa Morte who collected his 10th caution in the Man Utd game has already started a two game suspension covering the Birmingham and QPR games.

This means that if Bazza Hayles is still on the injured list we will play Birmingham without three strikers who are amongst the most prolific in the country!

The match against Watford saw Luis Boa Morte and Sean Davis collect their 11th and 7th yellow card respectively while Rufus Brevett and Barry Hayles remain on 4 cautions each.

Fulham maestro Jean Tigana will need to lay his plans very carefully during January and February if he is to avoid a string of poor results brought on by injuries and suspensions.
