Stuart Elliott it has been reported today was sent home early from the Northern Ireland squad because of an ongoing stomach problem …

He is to be replaced in the squad by Ivan Sproule of Hibernian …

He did not play at the weekend and has not featured for Northern Ireland in the previous superb victory against Spain .. What must be going through this lads head at the minute we can only guess at …

He has had a meteoric fall from grace since knocking in 27 goals in our promtion campaign from League 1, still remained our top scorer last season with a return of just seven goals but we put that down to adjusting to life in the CCC …

This season we hoped that maybe he would return on form but was hauled off after just 20 minutes of the opening fixture against WBA after his defensive frailties were woefully showed up by the Albion …

He has featured in the Carling Cup games but even in those he has failed to make any sort of impact …

I personally think he should be loaned out for a few moths so he can try and get back on form and putting the ball in the back of the net because with Yeates and France both performing on the left wing he will find chances here very limited I think …

Rumours were abound that he is to go to Doncaster on loan and personally this could be a good move for him …
