Martin Again Missing for Southend Trip

Midfielder Lee Martin will again be missing when the Blues take on Southend in a pre-season friendly at Roots Hall this evening (KO 7.45pm). The 25-year-old has been suffering with a thigh problem throughout pre-season with his only involvement so far as a sub in the second half at Cambridge.

Better news is that striker Ronan Murray is back having been sidelined with a minor niggle, while prospective signing Cheick Kourouma is again involved with the squad.

A Blues reserves side will be in action at AFC Sudbury on Wednesday evening (KO 7.45pm).

Squad: Ainsley, Bullard, Carson, Chambers, Chopra, Cresswell, Delaney, Drury, Edwards, Emmanuel-Thomas, Hyam, Kourouma, Lee-Barrett, Loach, Luongo, Murray, Scotland, Stevenson, Whight.
