And goalkeeper Lawlor has been suffering from a groin issue which saw him ruled out of Saturday's game at late notice.

'Joe picked up an injury in training on Tuesday,' McCann said.

'We're waiting to hear back from a radiologist he's going to see on Monday.

'We're not quite sure how long it'll be.

'It's his ankle. Buts landed on him in training which is never a good thing.

'It was one of those things, just a contact thing in training.

'I won't know any more until Monday.

'Ian Lawlor has got sportsman's groin. It'll be the early part of the week before we know any more from him.'
