Cohen's Injury Brings Problems for Rodger.

GARY Cohen who had an operation on his knee yesterday is unlikely to be back in action in the short term and his recovery may take weeks or even months.

His injury is thought to be patella tendonitis of which, Town physio Dave Moore, told Mariners Net; "It is the easiest diagnosis in the world but it is tricky to treat.

"He could be out for another three weeks but I've known people with patella tendonitis be out for months and months."

This is not good news for Graham Rodger who has already had a shock surprise with Michael Reddy requesting a transfer. That with the problem of being two players short before the Reddy, Cohen situation is now putting more pressure on him just days before the season starts.

It is too early to call this a crisis but it does present a major problem to Town's ambitions for promotion this season. It was hoped that by the start date we would have had a full settled squad. That may not be the case and could hinder our opening games.
