May: Out
Ben May has been ruled out of action for up to three weeks after sustaining a back injury in the 2-1 win over Sheffield Wednesday at the weekend.

The 21-year-old striker had to be substituted in the first half after suffering from a series of muscle spasms in his lower back.

"We think it's a muscular injury," revealed manager Colin Lee. "And that's better than a nerve problem, which we were worried about initially.

"But we anticipate he will be out for two to three weeks."
