| "• Joe Riley and Tom Eaves have entered the second chance saloon at Wanderers.Neil Lennon has welcomed the pair back from loan spells at Oxford United and Yeovil Town, respectively, and pledged to take a close look at whether they can force their way into his first-team plans.By the manager's own admission, he knows little about Riley – who was already out at the Kassam Stadium on his arrival in October – but he is keen to see whether the specialist full-back could save him some money in the transfer window.Eaves was re-integrated with the first team on Lennon’s first day in charge but loaned out to Yeovil just over a month later.The striker had been on the verge of leaving Wanderers and had a move to MK Dons lined-up in the final weeks of Dougie Freedman’s tenure, but Lennon insists he is open to Eaves challenging the likes of Craig Davies, Emile Heskey and Conor Wilkinson for a place up front." |
