Gary Neville aims for return at Bolton
Gary Neville has targeted a Premier League return against Bolton next Wednesday - a year and two days after his injury nightmare began against the same opponents.
The Manchester United captain, sidelined since suffering a calf injury in the 4-1 win against Bolton last March, has proved his fitness with a series of reserve outings in recent weeks.
Back in action: Gary Neville
The 85-times capped England defender underlined his recovery with a 73-minute run-out for the second string against Sunderland on Wednesday.
Neville, 33, could be ready for a recall to the squad for the trip to bottom club Derby tomorrow, but he admits that he wants to be back in the first-team picture in time for Bolton's visit to Old Trafford next Wednesday night.
"By next week I'd like to be involved with the first team, even if it's just travelling with the side and being part of it again," he said.
"It's great to be playing football again. The Sunderland match was my second reserve game in a couple of weeks and I seem to have come through it OK".
The financial future of FA Cup semi-finalists Cardiff was still hanging in the balance last night after a High Court judge delayed his ruling on a move by bankers to force immediate repayment of loans worth £24 million. Judgment may be given next Wednesday.
Meanwhile, Bournemouth administrator Gerald Krasner has accepted a "seven-figure" bid for the club from a consortium led by chairman Jeff Mostyn.
Letters will be sent out to creditors with a meeting scheduled for April.
