"Simon has got a dead leg and it is still quite sore and swollen," boss Peter Shirtliff told the Mansfield CHAD Website.
Shirtliff also told supporters he is not to bothered about the long miles that the Stags will do, during the next few days. After the game at Victoria Park, they face the long haul to Torquay this coming weekend "There is not a lot you can do about it is there?" he went on.
"We are not looking for excuses. I want a positive reaction from the players and they are full of confidence after the win against Hereford."
