No it's not Ex Reds manager Andy Ritchie, but Manchester United starlet Ritchie Jones is set to arrive at Oakwell on loan this weekend.
The midfielder is highly rated by Sir Alex Ferguson and will join his fellow United team-mate Adam Eckersley in signing on loan until the end of the season as The Reds aim to ensure Championship survival.
Jones, who ironically spent time on loan with tomorrow's opponents Colchester United earlier in the season will not sign until Monday and therefore will not be available for tomorrow's crucial home tussle with the U's.
Ritchie Jones has now completed his loan move to Oakwell and will be available for Saturday's trip to Southampton
