Colchester struggling for numbers for Crawley clash
Posted Monday, December 30, 2019 by PA
Colchester are badly depleted for the visit of Crawley.
Former Arsenal defender Cohen Bramall came off during the 2-2 draw against Exeter with an ankle injury and left the JobServe Community Stadium on Sunday wearing a protective boot.
Omar Sowunmi and Courtney Senior – who sustained a groin injury in the warm-up before the Grecians game – also joined Luke Prosser (knee) and Paris Cowan-Hall (Achilles) on the casualty list.
U’s boss John McGreal says one or two other players are nursing knocks and Colchester will definitely be without defender Tom Lapslie, who starts a three-match ban after being sent off against Exeter.
Crawley look set to be without Lewis Young for the Sky Bet League Two fixture.
The full-back suffered a shoulder injury in the closing stages of Sunday’s 1-1 draw at Grimsby.
David Sesay, Ashley Nathaniel-George and George Francomb all featured in the second half at Blundell Park and are in contention for starting spots.
Reece Grego-Cox has missed the last three games with a hamstring problem.
