Injured Bradford City midfielder Tommy Doherty is facing a six week lay-off.
The 31-year-old will have an operation on Thursday to sort out a long-standing ankle problem.
Manager Peter Taylor told the club website: "Tommy turned his ankle over at the training ground because of the hard conditions.
"It wasn't from a tackle, but he's hurt it again. He's going to be out for up to six weeks unfortunately, which is another blow for us."
The former Bristol City, Queens Park Rangers and Wycombe player signed a two year contract at Valley Parade last May.
