Martins back for struggling Toon
Striker Obafemi Martins returns to Newcastle's squad for tomorrow's Premier League home match against Blackburn.
The Nigeria international is fit after returning from the African Nations Cup with an ankle problem, although Emre (calf) and Mark Viduka (calf and hamstring) will miss out once again.
Shay Given will be sidelined for up to three weeks with the groin injury he aggravated against Manchester United last weekend and could require minor surgery during the summer, while Stephen Carr is still out with a hamstring problem.
Provisional squad: Harper, Forster, Beye, N'Zogbia, Enrique, Cacapa, Taylor, Faye, Edgar, Butt, Smith, Milner, Duff, Barton, LuaLua, Owen, Martins, Ameobi, Carroll.
