Robbie Neilson has provided a positive update on Peter Haring as he gets set for a Fir Park spy mission tonight ahead of Hearts' weekend trip.
The Jambos gaffer has been without the services of the Austrian since he suffered a concussion related injury against Aberdeen last year. His return to the fold has been stop-start but he's back in semi-training with his team-mates. The Tynecastle boss is hopeful he will return following the mini break that follows the Motherwell clash describing his pending return as a 'big boost'.
Stuart Kettlewell takes charge of Motherwell for the first time tonight in his interim role against St Mirren following the sacking of Stevie Hammell. The club acted after Raith Rovers eliminated them from the Scottish Cup at the fifth round stage. Speaking to Edinburgh Evening News, Neilson said: “Peter is back in semi-training at the moment so we are hopeful he will be back after this wee break which follows the Motherwell game.
