Dyer ready to bolster Toon army troops

NEWCASTLE midfielder Kieron Dyer is raring to go for Saturday’s Barclaycard Premiership clash with Manchester City after putting his latest injury misery firmly behind him.

The 24-year-old England international has missed his club’s last six matches, but returned for the reserves against West Brom last night. And despite suffering a touch of cramp late in the game, he came through unscathed.

Dyer’s availability for the visit of Kevin Keegan’s side to St James’ Park this weekend will present him with his first chance to taste senior action since the 1-0 win at Middlesbrough on October 18.
