Brentford have been given a pre-Wembley boost with the news Robbie Neilson's injury is not as serious as first feared.

The on-loan Leicester full-back was stretchered off with his leg in a splint during Friday night's 2-1 win over Carlisle. But Neilson was able to walk out of Griffin Park after the match and will be hoping to be fit for the Johnstone's Paint Trophy final against the Cumbrians in seven days' time. "Robbie rolled his ankle. That's happened to a lot of us," said Bees manager Nicky Forster.
