Alex Rodman to miss out once again for Bristol Rovers
Posted Thursday, February 21, 2019 by PA
Alex Rodman is set to miss his second game running as Bristol Rovers take on Sunderland in Sky Bet League One.
Winger Rodman missed the midweek draw with Portsmouth after sustaining an injury in training.
Manager Graham Coughlan said the extent of the injury is not yet known but hopes it will prove a short-term issue.
Ollie Clarke is available again after suspension and Tom Lockyer suffered no ill-effects after allegedly being punched by Portsmouth striker James Vaughan on Tuesday.
Sunderland’s promotion hopes have suffered a blow with the news that Chris Maguire will be out for six to eight weeks.
Maguire suffered a fractured fibula in the early stages of the 4-2 win over Gillingham in midweek.
Manager Jack Ross said the midfielder will be assessed next week to determine whether he will need surgery.
Lynden Gooch replaced Maguire on Tuesday and will hope to retain his place in the side against Rovers.
