Murphy Sidelined for Two Weeks

The former Bohemians stopper sustained the injury in the pre-match warm up at the Walkers Stadium and at first it was feared the Town number 26 could be ruled out for a longer period.

Confirming the news to the Official Club Website, Town boss Roy Keane said: "We're hoping Brian will be fit again in two weeks or so.

"We've been unlucky with 'keepers but I did fear it could have been longer so we'll sit tight and wait for Brian to return.

"It puts us back in the same scenario as before he arrived, with Arran and young Ian [McLoughlin] and we will stay with that until Brian is back."
