Skuse could return

Cole Skuse could come back into the reckoning for Bristol City ahead of the visit of Preston. It is hoped the midfielder will train for the first time since suffering a heel injury in the defeat at Cardiff in mid-October. Manager Keith Millen has no new problems although defender Christian Ribeiro (groin and hip) and last season`s top scorer Nicky Maynard (knee) are continuing to make progress. Millen said: "Both of them have been in for checks. There`s nothing sinister in that, we just want to keep an eye on them. "We hope Christian will be back very soon, and Nicky before Christmas." Meanwhile, on-loan Wolves striker Sam Vokes is also nearing a comeback following his hamstring tear.
