Bowyer should be OK for Fulham clash

Last updated : 03 December 2002 By The Gas Man

Bowyer left Elland Road on crutches following the 2-1 defeat against the Addicks and seemed set for a lengthy period on the sidelines.

However, Bowyer has been sent for a scan on the ankle and it is believed there will be no long-term problem.

There is no ligament damage and it seems the injury is heavy bruising meaning he should be fit for United's next game with Fulham at the weekend.
