Robb doubt for Hibs visit
Dundee United wing- back Steven Robb is a big doubt for this weekend’s SPL clash against Hibs at Tannadice (writes Graeme Finnan).
The 24-year-old was carried off during last week’s reserve game against Kilmarnock with an ankle knock and has been unable to train since.

And, even though the visit of Tony Mowbray’s men takes place on Sunday, the extra day might still not offer Robb sufficient time to heal.

“Steven is still unable to train and he’s be getting treatment from the physio,” said Craig. “It’s still too early to say if he’ll be fit for Sunday.”

United are already short-handed on the left side of the park as Barry Robson is suspended following his red card at St Mirren

The player/boss, meanwhile, has shown no ill-effects following yesterday’s 2-2 reserve draw at Dunfermline. Also getting another 90 minutes under his belt was Lee Wilkie, following his switch from Dundee.

“Lee came through the game fine and it’s just a case of continuing to build up his fitness,” added Craig.
