BLUES midfielder Michael Timlin was forced to miss Saturday’s draw with Gillingham after injuring his knee in training.
But Shrimpers boss Phil Brown is hopeful Timlin will be back in contention for Friday’s clash at Rochdale.
“Michael jarred his knee in a training ground challenge on Friday,” said Brown.
“It hasn’t swollen up severely and there’s every chance he’ll be OK for the Rochdale game next week.”
