Feb 12 2003: The Evening Standard today reported that the Australian international Kevin Muscat is being sued by Charlton midfielder Matty Holmes for a challenge he made five years ago when playing for Wolverhampton Wanderers in an FA Cup fixture.
    Holmes, now 33 and a player-coach at non-league Dorchester Town, needed three operations and had a metal rod inserted in his left leg following the challenge.
    He said: "I am lucky that I can still play once-a-week at this level. It is hard going but if I do not train more than once each week, I should still be able to perform on a Saturday. "I still get aches and pains and the incident is on my mind the whole time. It is hard because every time I watch a professional game I think I should still be playing."
    A preliminary High Court hearing is apparently scheduled for April.

Jan 7 2003: Wolverhampton Wanderers boss, Dave Jones, has targeted Zema Abbey as the striker to take his club to the Premiership. The Norwich City player was signed in 2000 but suffered a damage cruciate last season and so was unable to show his true potential. But he has recovered well and with Wolves short of firepower, Jones (providing he keeps his job long enough) will attempt to bring him in.
