Double concern for Toon
Newcastle United, 17:18, November 24, 2009 ,
Newcastle's victory over Preston came at a cost as Ryan Taylor and Danny Simpson both picked up injuries.
Taylor left Deepdale with his foot in a protective cast and is facing a spell on the sidelines while Simpson picked up a thigh injury in the second half and is also a concern for Chris Hughton.
The boss is hoping the injuries are not serious but cannot say for sure until they have been fully assessed by the club's medical staff.
"We'll see (about Taylor) - he'll be assessed," Hughton told the Gazette. "Hopefully, it's not too serious. And taking Danny off was a precaution - we hope he's back soon."
