Defender injury setback

Ronny Johnsen will undergo a scan after injuring his knee against Blackburn reserves at Kingston Park last night.

Johnsen was replaced after 18 minutes following a collision with Javier De Pedro and looks a doubt for the next couple of first team games having been expected to figure this Sunday against Man City.

Once again the second string were disappointing and failed to score for the fourth consecutive game.  Both Lewis Guy and Guy Bates never looked like scoring with the former having a good second half opportunity but ultimately failing to capitalise when through on goal.

Blackburn won 1-0 thanks to a goal from American born striker Jamal Johnson condemning the reserves to their fourth defeat of the season.
