Birmingham Mail/Colin Tattum: Quincy fit for Birmingham City but not guaranteed a return place
- QUINCY will be fit for tomorrow's game at QPR - but not guaranteed a return.
- The winger has missed Blues last two match because of a thigh problem.
- "He was close Saturday," said manager Alex McLeish. "But I don't think he was 100 per cent sure himself.
- "The physio felt he wasn't convinced he could make it, so he missed out.
- "But, saying that, it would have been difficult to get him in the 16 anyway given what we saw the other night [against Crystal Palace]. Also, you've got to think about other players and keep their morale up too."
- "Quincy will be available Tuesday," McLeish added.
- "McFadden just made it. He wasn't quite 100 per cent because of his groins. He has had a tough couple of months with the Scotland games and everything else.
- "He is seeking that wee bit of sharpness. When he is at his sharpness he will be very difficult to leave out." Birmingham Mail
