Newcastle United will have to make do with their paper-thin and injury-hit squad until the transfer window in January.
It's a fair bet that Michael Owen will not play again this season and neither will Shola Ameobi once he has an operation on his hip in the next couple of weeks.
United also currently have Shay Given, Emre, Kieron Dyer, Oba Martins and Antoine Sibierski on the treatment table, while Albert Luque is out in the cold and Olivier Bernard is struggling to get anywhere near the standard required for the Premiership.
Both Stephen Carr and Scott Parker have been carrying injuries while Steven Taylor was not risked in Saturday's starting line-up because of a groin problem.
And Nicky Butt was unable to go up and receive his man-of-the- match award from the sponsors on Saturday night because he could hardly move his neck after a first-half collision.
