LEEDS SUSPEND OSTER AND McMASTER
Leeds United have suspended John Oster and Jamie McMaster following alleged breaches of club discipline.
The pair were suspended by boss Kevin Blackwell on Christmas Eve following an incident at the club's official festive party last week.
Blackwell said the duo were set for showdown talks on Friday.
"We have suspended them pending further enquiries," he told the Yorkshire Evening Post. "We are conducting our own internal investigation. Until that is concluded and we have met with the players again there is nothing further I can say."
Oster, who is on loan from Sunderland, was arrested outside a Durham nightclub two weeks ago. He was released without charge but fined by Leeds and warned about his future conduct.
It is thought Leeds will take a hard-line stance when 26-year-old Oster and McMaster return to the club to learn their fate on Friday.
Following Oster's nightclub incident Blackwell stressed he would not tolerate off-field trouble.
Leeds could opt to end Oster's loan arrangement while 22-year-old McMaster could face a substantial fine and a warning about his future conduct.
