Garath gets the all-McCleary

Leading scorer Garath McCleary comes back into the reckoning for Nottingham Forest's final game of the season against relegated Portsmouth at the City Ground.

McCleary, who has scored all nine of his goals this season in the npower Championship, is available again after serving a three-match suspension. The winger was controversially shown a straight red card during the 1-0 victory at Peterborough on April 9. Manager Steve Cotterill will check on striker Dexter Blackstock and defender Joel Lynch after both players missed the defeat to Hull last weekend with slight knocks. Blackstock was replaced in the side by Marcus Tudgay but he is also considered a doubt after a rib injury forced him off during the first half at the KC Stadium.
