Rib Injury For Price


By Aston
October 23 2006

Town goalkeeper Lewis Price is a major doubt for Town’s game against Luton at the weekend after chipping a rib against Southend.

Lewis suffered the injury after clashing with Southend striker Matt Harrold in the opening minutes of Town’s 3-1 win against the shrimpers’ and was replaced by Shane Supple just 8 minutes in, despite the injury he has not been ruled of the game against Luton on Sunday.

 

Town’s head of sport science, Dave Williams: “Lewis has had an x-ray and he has chipped a rib, he also has some swelling on his hip bone but it's settling down, although it's still very painful.

 

“Obviously he is a concern for the weekend but we are certainly not ruling him out of the Luton game.

 

“It's a case of waiting to see how quickly the pain subsides and how if affects his mobility.”
