Danny Boshell could be out for the rest of the season after being injured in Saturday's match at Bristol City. The injury occurred when Boshell’s right knee was involved in a challenge with midfielder Joe Burnell. A scan has revealed extensive damage which is described as a “grade ll tear of the medial co-lateral ligament with trauma to the posterior cruciate ligament, bruising to the lateral meniscus and a strain of the popliteus muscle”. It is is not expected that the injury will require surgery although there is extensive swelling but the anticipated time out will be a minimum of 6 weeks.
