Butt fitness test as Jefferies faces Carbone decision

Sir Alex Ferguson will check on the fitness of midfielder Nicky Butt before deciding on the line-up for Manchester United's clash with Bradford City at Valley Parade.

With Paul Scholes ruled out as he recovers from a rib injury, Butt will be given as long as possible to recover from cuts and bruises he picked up during the FA Cup win at Fulham last Sunday.
