The Jamaica international has suffered with persistent fitness complaints over the years to limit his appearances for his club. But he has been given a specific training programme by physio Andy Mitchell which is designed to eradicate his nagging hamstring injuries. "It is all about keeping injury-free this pre-season," he told the Bolton News as preparations continue for a first game of the season at home to Fulham. "I have been working really hard with the backroom staff to try and do things a bit differently to make sure I stay fit and play a part against Fulham. "I have done a lot of core work. Mitch' has come in and set up a programme designed to prevent the hamstring injuries, so hopefully that will help too."
