    It's not a break - it's a knee ligament injury from what I read and it's the same knee he was out with pre season. The extent is still to be assessed - sadly not as easy as sticking him under a scanner/x-ray machine and looking at the pictures on the other end

    Not sure we have got much choice at the back, even so 3/5/2 for me, I would stick Ozzy back in with Jack and Looie and see how it goes. <ok>. As long as he doesn't play them up front. <laugh>

    Charlie Wyke could be out for two months after suffering a knee injury on Saturday. The 25-year-old was only making his fourth appearance for the club after injuring the same knee shortly before arriving at the club from Bradford City in the summer. Wyke was stretchered off after a challenge from Burton Albion goalkeeper Dimitar Evtimov and left the Pirelli Stadium on crutches. The striker has suffered medial ligament damage and is expected to be missing for six to eight weeks.

    It's a medial ligament injury, he'll be out for 6-8 weeks. It was on the website yesterday
