Allen may be out until the new year
IT MIGHT be 2015 before Ross Allen pulls on a Guernsey FC shirt again after he revealed that he is several weeks – at least – away from a comeback.
It has been a frustrating season for the Green Lions' star No. 10, who has been able to start just three games and come off the bench on a further four occasions, although he has still rattled in eight goals.
Despite his knee ligament 'tweak' being suffered nearly seven weeks ago now, Allen is still left wondering about when a possible return might be.
'Things haven't improved at all really in the last month or so, so I can't put an exact timescale on things at all because I honestly don't know,' he said yesterday.
'But it will definitely be another month or six weeks out at the absolute minimum and I may now have to look at getting a scan on it to see if there is more damage than we initially thought.'
