Bakke And Johnson Booster

Both players suffered knee ligament damage and were feared to be out for the whole of the season but the latest medical reports indicate they could make a comeback in late January or early February.

The news is a massive boost for The Whites who are short of both numbers and experience in the squad as a whole and in midfield most particular.

Kevin Blackwell told BBC Radio Leeds: "Seth has started running, so should step up his work in about six weeks. We're looking at early February or late January for both of them. It would be a massive boost to get them back."
