On loan midfielder Jamie Ness has returned to his parent club Stoke City to receive treatment on a hamstring tear. Ness picked up the injury 35 minutes in to the 2-0 defeat away to Swindon Town.
The 23-year old who joined on loan until January will be assessed by the Stoke City medical team before returning his rehabilitation at the Alex.
The club expect he could be sidelined for three to four weeks.
