    Said on Sky Sports News that McGeady's back in training and could be fit for the game against Rapid Vienna.

    What do you think, should we risk him with the old firm game on Sunday?

    Maybe give McCourt a game against Rapid Vienna with McGeady on the bench if needed?

    Would like to have McGeady playing tomorrow night but I've got one eye on the game on Sunday.

    Hopefully keep him on the bench for the Vienna game and give him the last 15 minutes then cut him loose from the start on Sunday .

    Would like to see him sit of Vienna. Unless of course, he's been training for a while now. Either way..I'm excited that he's coming back

    Wouldn't want to see him risked against Vienna unless hes 100%. Paddy has came onto a game at the most convenient time.

    Bench Aiden in that case and keep him fresh for Sun.

    I took it as he was just back in training today so I don't think it's worth the risk. He could get injured again and make it worse then he could be out for longer.

    I would start with McCourt against Vienna with Aiden on the bench if required.

    Give McGeady as much time as possible to recover in order to run the Orcs ragged on Sunday

    I don't think TM will risk him if he's not fully fit so it may well be a place on the bench for McGeady tomorrow night.

    TBH, Rapid looked a pretty good team. They knocked out Villa, who although they had a shaky start to the season are no mugs. I wouldn't risk McCourt as he doesn't have the fitness to track back against this level of opposition, in a game of this intensity and importance. I think he might play Brown on the right with Robson/Crosas back in the centre, again depending on the formers sharpness too. It could be interesting with the above midfield, with McCourt playing in the 'hole' behind a striker?

    i think it's gonna be a dirty game leave mcgeady out of it altogether don't even put him on the bench that way your not tempted to throw him on and then they stud him and start a new injury for him

    TM will most likely start with landry and scott and then when mccourt starts to fizzle either one of two things will happen either bring on an attacker for an attacker i.e mcginn staright swap or push out brown and let robson finish off the game and get some good game time adding abit of height to the center

    On current form I would keep Paddy starting, McGeady wont be 100% for a few games plus it would be hard to drop Paddy when he playing so well.

    Mowbray made comments on their website saying he won't play him unless he's fully fit

    Id say it could be McCourt on the bench with McGinn starting TBH... I can't see TM risking McGeady before the OF....
