'Kim set for Rovers return'
TOMY Mowbray has received another positive bulletin from the treatment room- but for tomorrow's televised trip to Newcastle(KO 7.45pm)
Do-heon Kim has recovered so quickly from his medial knee ligament damage that hi is set to return to contention for Saturday's Hawthorns date with Blackburn- up to three weeks ahead of schedule.
Filipe Teixeira(knee/calf)and Abdoulaye Meite's(calf) progress isn't quite as advanced but the duo should be ready for Barclays Premier League duty sooner rather than later.
'Our injury situation is improving.' said Mowbray, who has no fresh fitness worries after the Hull defeat.
'Kim's just about ready.
'He's now in full training and way ahead of schedule.
'He probably won't travel tomorrow but I'm hopeful he'll be ready for the weekend - and pushing for a place.
Mowbray is hoping Kim's which-fire recovery is a good omen for any future knocks the Korea Republic international may suffer.
'This is the first time Kim's been injured since joining us.' added the Baggies boss.
'Some players are good healers and recover very quickly while others' problems can drag on.
'Let's hope this is a good sign for Kim and he will recover quickly from any knocks he does get.'
