Hunt may rue latest suspension

STEPHEN HUNT’S poor disciplinary record has cost him a place in the Wolves line-up at Chelsea on Saturday and he could find it difficult returning to Mick McCarthy’s team.

The Waterford man, who is suspended for the game at Stamford Bridge after picking up his fifth booking of the season last week, needs to impress in as many Premier League games as possible if he is to replace ether Damien Duff or Aiden McGeady in the Ireland team.

England winger Matt Jarvis has been on the sidelines waiting for his opportunity and if Jarvis resumes the form of last season Hunt will be warming a seat on the substitutes’ bench.
