City Captain Matt Elliott has broken his toe in training and could be out for at least 6 weeks.

Matty is seeing a specialist today but manager Micky Adams said:

“The toe is definitely broken and it looks as though he will be out for a minimum of six weeks. It is obviously a big blow to us.”

On top of this Frank Sinclair was stretchered off in Tuesday night's reserve game against the Covscum with a bad hip after colliding with our young goalie.

Adams said:

“The hip is very sore today and Sinclair looks extremely doubtful for the Chelsea match. I don’t think he will be able to play.

“With Elliott also out all the defenders at the club come into contention for a place in the side at Stamford Bridge.”

Howey and Taggart both played a full 90 minutes for the reserves.
